Thank you for the answer, but I still have the following problems. * I do not know how to get to the default NetBeans formatting settings other than throwing current settings and cache stuff in the bin. This is hardly acceptable for any developer. * I do NOT want to start a formatting war, I have been in too many with .NET fans, and it is useless. I want just to stick to the preferred project settings (if any). It would be sufficient if one of the regular committers like Neil or Michael would simply export their settings into a file in some well-known place in the repo and call it preferred settings. Root or a subdir would be fine. Then I could pick it up and easily conform to those settings. If I would add those settings to specific sub-projects, I will add them to .gitignore. I must say that in some places the formatting of some sources is really off, making comprehensibility a lot harder, and impairing work on bug resolution hard. In particular, the reformatting stuff is difficult to understand because of the lack of doc on how things (should) work (compile/parse and diffing). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
