> +1. FWIW, I'm not on board with reordering system-header inclusions. Some platforms have (had?) ordering dependencies for those, and where that's true, it's seldom alphabetical. It's only our own headers where we can safely expect that any arbitrary order will work. > I think we shouldn't remove the extra line as part of the above change. I would take out the blank lines between our own #includes. Those are totally arbitrary and unnecessary. The whole point of style rules like this one is to reduce the differences between the way one person might write something and the way that someone else might. Deciding to throw in a blank line is surely in the realm of unnecessary differences. regards, tom lane
