Is there any guideline on tabs vs spaces in Commons?

Given that due to the Copyright Text Change we have
A diff on each and every file already, now might be
A good time to do such a global cleanup, in order
To simplify diffs / patches in upcoming bugfix 
Releases, and cross-porting patches between the 
1.5 and 2.0 streams.

Cheers,
