Hmm, Geany should use Tabs for Makefiles already since Geany 0.14.
Since 0.15, Geany should auto-detect the used indentation type when
opening files, this is especially for Makefiles as they are always
using Tabs.

Just make sure that you have enabled the option "Detect from file" in
the preferences dialog, Editor tab.
