[babel-dev] tapiji patches - whitespace errors
|
Hi
when preparing the commits of our two patches we discovered that git
reports a significant amount of whitespace errors. Unfortunately this
only appeared now as we tested the patches when babel was still in the
CVS repository. Anyhow we would of course prefer to
It looks like we have a two options on how to adress this issue:
a) fix the whitespace errors before commiting the initial patch (which
might be an issue with the IP team)
b) fix the whitespace errors in a commit that comes right after the
initial commit. (which persists the whitespace errors in the
repositories history)
From our point of view, the two options are both feasible as neither
has a significant overhead.
In addition we are wondering if there are any guidelines (either for
eclipse code globally or specific for the babel project) on how to treat
whitespace (e.g. indention with tabs vs. spaces) that we should adhere
to when fixing the existing issues.
Anyway, please let us know your opinion and or preference regarding this
issue,
thank you,
best regards,
Stefan
