Thus the brackets (or lack of them) of do-while loops should never be forced as a part of coding standard/tools. This is just an unimportant detail of personal style and trying to force it is simply damaging to all of us. > Of secondary importance is the benefit that always using brackets > makes them much more merge friendly. There are many ways to make the code more merge friendly at a cost of readability. Hope we don't go this way. -- Krzysztof Halasa -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
