This is the crux of the issue. We should not care how the diffs or files come to us. Any old mess will suffice. As long as we committers have tools to handle it. We apply the diff, run the tool to re-apply the indentation and perhaps other style, then review is easier and commit is cleaner. Sure, we still need to encourage good style. We need to define that style first then configure our tools to apply it. --David
