There is a new feature that does this in VS2013 but you're asking about VS2012.

The VSCommands addin enables settings synchronization:

VSCommands will export all current Visual Studio settings (except for Window Layouts) to the Sync Directory and will also monitor this directory for changes.

Also settings can be synchronized across different computers by, for example, saving the file in a dropbox folder:

VSCommands supports settings synchronization to a folder on your local file system, which you can further synchronize with a cloud using file synchronization services such as Dropbox.

And this addin is free, but there's also a paid version that enables more features.
