Another example, this file:
I don't think a VCS is the place to enforce formatting rules. The VCS should not care what is in the file, only how it has changed. Also there are languages where spacing matters, so ignoring whitespace changes in the VCS is wrong. And last but not least, your whitespace rules do not apply to everyone else. -- Dan _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
