Me? However, I have never changed the value of tab-width.

    *** Welcome to IELM ***  Type (describe-mode) for help.
    ELISP> tab-width
    8

I'd like to understand what happens exactly. These problems will
happen in other projects.

My understand is that:

Phase 1. Stefan set tab-width less than 8.
Phase 2. He did untabify.
Phase 3. He committed the changes the tree.
Phase 4. The other developers did star-merge.

Is this right?

In my understand, The other developers' setting of
tab-width is nothing to do with this issue.

Actually Stefan wrote in the other mail:
> I also use a tab-width of 4 :-O
> This is now a non-issue because we (hopefully) stopped using tabs.

As Stefan wrote, now we are free from the issue.
However, I would like to know/understand what happes during Phase [1-3].
Where does the strange indentation comes from?
