Why are the indentation rules so restrictive? #7810
-
I'm trying to understand why the indentation rules are so limited? I like to follow the linux kernel spec and usually have 8 space indentation for my personal projects. It's frustrating that there's a function for setting the indentation but it only accepts a limited set of options. |

Can you be more specific about the limitation you are talking about? What prevents you from defining indentation as expected? |

so, let's conclude on need of community (or lack of it) part, and potentially extend all the tests.
