Not that I know - it's a classic way to start an argument :) General rules (of open source) are:
* Adhere to the style of the file you're editing. * Don't commit sweeping reformatting with any other modification. * Don't impose your editor on others. * Just do it; aka 'at the end of the day we're volunteers, and someone who's prepared to do something generally has the moral advantage'. The main pain point I imagine are that if you do some work and hit ctrl-f (or whatever it is; I've not used Eclipse/Intellij for a long time :) ), and it reformats, then you need to load a clean version, reformat and then commit so your work and the reformatting aren't all mixed together. That's the main thing that will get tuts and complaints. :) Hen On Mon, Sep 13, 2010 at 6:23 AM, Charles Matthew Chen <charlesmc...@gmail.com> wrote: > Great, Sebb. > > On a related note, I'm tempted to standardize the code formatting > of the entire project using something like Eclipse's autoformat > feature.
