And when you go to the previous commit, you discover that it was another style change and you have to go before that again, and when you discover the actual commit, if you want to blame another line of this actual commit, maybe you discover that is another style change. Style changes makes difficult to follow the history of repositories (more difficult, not imposible), and it is the reason why,for example, they are not allowed in git project itself . We have some of these problems in st now (__20h__, pun for you :P). I realy hate the style of st, and it makes my life harder, because after some years with it, I don't get used to it, and I cannot use regular expressions in effective way (function braces are not in column 1), but I think we should not modify the style.
