The biggest problem here is turning tabs off. Tabs need to be used
instead of spaces. As well, the indentation needs to set to 8.
If tabs are tabs, then surely the indentation itself doesn't matter? I
like the use of tabs as it means that I can use my personal preference
of a tab size of 1 or 2, and someone else modifying the same file can
use 8.
Personally I think that a tab size of 8 is #$%&! ridiculous, but as long
as they're tabs I can view them however I want :)
Is there any way that cvs/svn/hg/whatever can be coding style agnostic?
I mean as long as it's all under source control then why does coding
style even matter... it should be possible to have a filter that
converts source files to your personal coding style preference on
checkout, and then back again on checkin. But I guess that's just a
dream :)
