[PATCH] gitweb: add a setting to control the tabstop width

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

 



Not everyone uses the same tab width. gitweb learns a new setting to
control the tabstop width. The configuration can be set globally and
on a per project basis. The default is 8, preserving existing
behaviour. The configuration variable name is borrowed from the vim
setting with the same behaviour.

The untabify function seems the sensible place to make the change. As
untabify is called once per line from various different locations it
also makes sense to cache the result of the config lookup in a package
variable, though this makes the change slightly less neat.

This change should have a minimal impact on performance but it would
appreciate some more eyes and ideally some performance testing on
heavier systems than my own.
