[PATCH] Make the tab width used for whitespace checks configurable

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Johannes Sixt <j6t@xxxxxxxx>

A new whitespace "rule" is added that sets the tab width to use for
whitespace checks and fix-ups and replaces the hard-coded constant 8.

Since the setting is part of the rules, it can be set per file using
.gitattributes.

The new configuration is backwards compatible because older git versions
simply ignore unknown whitespace rules.

Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <j6t@xxxxxxxx>

 I have a project that uses tab width 4, and which has a lot of whitespace
 errors. This is very helpful to spot them when lines are changed that
 are indented with 4 spaces.
