> What's the problem including it in the project ? The problems have already been outlined:
1. It is unclear how many people use editorconfig. I wouldn't add files to the project root unless it is beneficial to a large part of contributors 2. If editorconfig would only apply to few developers, we would prefer a mechanism that would be more generally applicable, such as a bot that review PRs which is more generally applicable (while they are not exclusive, a bot would likely require its own files as well, going back to point 1 above) You may not agree with the conclusions but, from our point of view, that's why editorconfig is not that appealing. *José Valim* www.plataformatec.com.br Skype: jv.ptec Founder and Director of R&D On Wed, Feb 8, 2017 at 11:22 AM, Jean Parpaillon <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > I totally support the inclusion of editorconfig in the project. > > I do not understand the reasons why not including it: > - requires external editor integration: > - existing plugins list is huge: http://editorconfig.org/#download > - If you don't want to use, don't use it !
