3-spaces is AdaCore's standard indentation, so GPS will format to that
unless you tell it different.

But for it to change just by copying from one folder to another - no!

I use -gnaty (default style checks) for my own projects, so I've become
accustomed to 3-spaces. Except on Stack Overflow, where Markdown uses a
minimum of 4-spaces for code inserts.
