I did a trial run following the current pgindent README procedure, and
noticed that the perltidy step left me with a pile of '.bak' files
littering the entire tree. This seems like a pretty bad idea because
a naive "git add ." would have committed them. It's evidently because
src/tools/pgindent/perltidyrc includes --backup-and-modify-in-place.
Is there a good reason for that, and if so what is it?
Also, is there a reason why the perltidy invocation command hasn't
been packaged into a shell script, rather than expecting the committer
to copy-and-paste a rather large string?
regards, tom lane
