Personally I don't have anything against the idea. TimescaleDB uses clang-format to mimic pgindent and it works quite well. One problem worth mentioning though is that the clang-format file is dependent on the particular version of clang-format. TSDB requires version 7 or 8 and the reason why the project can't easily switch to a newer version is that the format has changed. So perhaps a directory would be more appropriate than a single file. -- Best regards, Aleksander Alekseev
