It seems some recent new devs are not familiar with the common code formatter that we use for our codebase. While we already have Wiki page [1] for new contributors and it mentions: "Code must be formatted according to Sun's conventions <http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/documentation/codeconvtoc-136057.html>" but this Oracle's code conventions page is not being actively maintained (no update has been received after 1999) and hence, I believe we should check-in and maintain code formatter xmls for supported IDEs in our codebase only (under dev-support) for all devs to be able to import it in the respective IDE. Keeping this in mind, I have created this PR 3387 <https://github.com/apache/hadoop/pull/3387>. If you could please take a look and if the PR receives sufficient +1s, we might want to update our Wiki page to directly refer to our own codebase for code formatters that we maintain.
