I'm always of two minds about this kind of thing since it makes any merging or patch application across the change a huge pain, but I like having consistency. I was mostly leaving things alone except when we mostly rewrote a file, but that doesn't get us anywhere particularly quickly. If we're going to do a mass indentation fix and take the hit for that, it would be tempting to standardize on an identation level as well. I think we have some files that are using an eight-space indent. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
