Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/DavidAnson/markdownlint/issues/416

My .markdownlint.json config is as follows:

{
    "default": true,
    "MD004": false,
    "MD013": false,
    "MD024": false,
    "MD025": { "level": 1, "front_matter_title": ""},
    "MD029": { "style": "ordered" },
    "MD007": { "indent": 4 },
    "MD046": false,
    "no-alt-text": true,
    "no-inline-html": false,
    "no-space-in-code": false,
    "code-block-style": false,
    "no-blanks-blockquote": false
}

Yet when I use quick fix to replace a hard-tab, it replaces it with 2 spaces instead of 4.

MD010 replaces each hard tab character with a single space because that's how it renders in normal text. Inside code blocks, the number of spaces is still 1 and this is not currently configurable. Is seems you would like to see that ability added to the library?

Oh I did not know that, yeah I assumed it would replace a hard-tab with my configured tab width equivalent in spaces.

I think the spaces_per_tab parameter may already do what you want: https://github.com/DavidAnson/markdownlint/blob/main/doc/Rules.md#md010

I was thinking of opening a new issue, but I think it's still related to this one.
Usually inside a code fence a more sensible default would be 2 or 4 (the GitHub rendering default of 8 is too much). Maybe that requires a separate option than the current spaces_per_tab like spaces_per_tab_in_code (awkward name) or allowing the current code_blocks to use an integer for those spaces instead of the current boolean
