I use `./mach clang-format` on basically every patch I write. It has eliminated the style nits that get picked up when people review my patches, at least when I remember to run it! I've considered writing a commit hook to run `./mach clang-format` before every commit, but haven't gotten around to it... `mach clang-format` is awesome, please don't remove it. As others have pointed out, it doesn't always produce nice formatting, but it's at least consistent, and enforces the major style guide recommendations. It's also liberating not having to waste brain power deciding how to format code. cpearce. _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
