Hi, I’d like to state a differing opinion:
I don’t think highly of such a hard rule. A line should have the length that is most natural to it. Patches should be easy to review. Developers time is spent better than re-shuffling code to be short and still nicely formatted and aligned. I might be in the minority here, and of course I’ll be adhering to any hard requirements agreed on by broad consensus, but note that the support for an 80-line regime is not unanimous. Oh, and obviously dropping this requirement would also solve Richard’s problems with the linter :-) Greetings, Joachim -- Joachim “nomeata” Breitner m...@joachim-breitner.de • http://www.joachim-breitner.de/ Jabber: nome...@joachim-breitner.de • GPG-Key: 0xF0FBF51F Debian Developer: nome...@debian.org
