Nick Dimiduk commented on HBASE-26617:
--------------------------------------
I'm not sure about all cases, but at least for backporting HBASE-26545, which
landed on master but not branches-2 yet, I can apply the cherry-pick from
master, then apply spotless, then carry on with updates for the target branch,
and it's not too painful.
> Use spotless to reduce the pain on fixing checkstyle issues

> Spotless is a tool for reformatting code based on your configuration file, it
> supports the google java format, as well as a eclipse formatter file.
> I think we could use it to format our code, based on a configuration file in
> our repo, and all the developpers, no matter what IDE they use, they can just
> type a mvn spotless:apply before commiting a PR, then everything is fine.
