Hi Gisle,

`file` is not a placeholder but the literal argument. `--style=file` tells `clang-format` to search for a `.clang-format` file in the current and parent folders.

Cheers
Johannes

unless the clang-format behavior changed, the function call should be:

The `--style=file` option tells clang-format to search for a `.clang-format` file.

Does not work on Windows (using clang-format v10.0.0).
In a .bat-file I have:
   clang-format.exe -style=%GR_ROOT%/.clang-format -i %*

No matter how style is; '--style' or '-style', it
says 'Invalid value for -style'.

Only these values works:
   LLVM, Google, Chromium, Mozilla, WebKit.
which all are equally ugly.
