You could also tag this commit somehow. 'pre_style_fixup' ? > We will let this run through dashboard testing tonight on 'next'. > If all is well then that will become 'master'. I have a lot of respect for you guys for doing this. Most other large development repos would not even consider such a change 'because it messes up the history', which I think is nothing compared to the amount of wasted time for everyone in handling the existing whitespace problems in the repo. Qt is a horrible mess of trailing whitespace. In the future we can point to this to see how much of a problem it really is for a large and widely used repo with useful history before and after the style change.
