Hi, Bart,
Can you help me as I have a trouble about the indentation.
When I align descendants to a function open parenthesis in VIM editor,
but when I generate the patch, I find the second line always missing one space in
patch format. So is there any problem if I send this patch?
I make sure that the alignment in VIM is OK.
Thanks,
Liang
