<p>Hello,<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Perhaps you should consider using automatic formatting tools such as clang-format?<br>
</p>
<p>Just choose the style which is as close to your current style as possible, and then</p>
<p>make as few changes to your .clang-format file as possible. Automatic tools will<br>
</p>
<p>make your life much easier. Sometimes you will want to disable automatic formatting,</p>
<p><span style="text-align: center; font-size: 12pt;">and you can do that directly in the sou</span><span style="text-align: center; font-size: 12pt;">rce code. </span><span style="text-align: center; font-size: 12pt;">You can make your editor automatically</span></p>
<p><span style="text-align: center; font-size: 12pt;">format the </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">code, and </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">you can add a git-hook to automatically format commits.</span></p>

<div>
<div dir="ltr">My vote is the same as Vicky's - spaces, with indenting using multiples of 2.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Reasons:</div>
<div>- lots of religious discussion on the interweb about tabs vs spaces, but a quick read seems to indicate that the spaces camp is more popular</div>
<div>- spaces are more deterministic than tabs</div>
<div>- 2 rather than 4 gives more space for code</div>

As many know the GEOS code base is a mess of different formatting.<br>
Particular with tabs and spaces.<br>
Our .editorconfig is equally messy in the name of compromise.<br>
<br>
I'd like to make a Motion starting with GEOS 3.8 to reformat the .cpp, .h,<br>
and .c<br>
<br>
I think the other extensions are pretty standard and should stay as they<br>
are.<br>
<br>
That said, what would people prefer?<br>
<br>
I vote:<br>
<br>
TABS<br>
<br>
<br>
Please all PSC and all developers who commit to GEOS voice an opinion.<br>
We'll count the votes and go with the consensus with each vote counting<br>
equally.<br>
If any non-dev, non-PSC have an opinion, feel free to voice an opinion<br>
keeping note we may not care about your opinion, but might possibly sway<br>
ours :)<br>
<br>
Once done - pramsey or cvvergara or strk will do a 1000 pound commit to<br>
update all these files (including the editorconfig)<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Regina<br>
