Emilian and Team,

Thank you for your feedback.
How am I supposed to read that:

a) there is already such a Fork (and I just do not know about) or

b) I should fork and develop such a tool myself?

I am actually quite sad that nothing has been done about that and am
almost intrigued looking into that . Managing and merging parallel open
Pull Requests for a Third Party Software is quite a nightmare
currently.

But then I started to write a SQL Formatter, when Netbeans did not have
one. That forced me to get heavily involved into JSQLParser when many
statements/expressions where unsupported. Only to get my nose into
JavaCC and Parser Theory for writing Grammar. And now writing a Merge
Tool just to manage my Pull Requests for JSQLParser? 

All I wanted was writing some Accounting Software :-(

How are other Java Programmers dealing with this situation?

Best regards
Andreas
