Does anyone have a set of GNU indent (or astyle) options that correspond
to the proper format for GRUB source code? I want to make sure I'm using
the correct style so that I don't produce spurious changes when files
I'm editing are reformatted.
I tried using GNU indent (with the default GNU style) on a few GRUB 2
source files to see what differences resulted, and I observed the
following differences:
GRUB GNU
==== ===
(1) Space after unary '!' operator Yes No
(2) Space between macro name and open paren No Yes
(3) Max line length >=80 <80
(4) Space between __attribute__ and parens No Yes
(5) Keep indenting spaces on blank lines Yes No
I did notice, however, that in some places (e.g.,
normal/functions.c lines 84-87) the space/TAB usage is inconsistent). I
assume that replacing 8 spaces with TAB characters is the desired
usage (as GNU style suggests).
I just want to keep the code I modify and produce as clean and uniform
as possible, and produce clean patches.
Thanks,
Colin
