Description Johanna Räisä 2021-01-11 07:46:38 UTC
From Bug 12545
>> It'd be usefull to have a .editorconfig [1] file, that enforces some of our
>> coding guidelines, in the source tree top level.
>> 
>> Those developers that have their editors configured to honour the file, will
>> benefit. Those that wouldn't use it, won't get bothered by the addition. So, a
>> harmless addition that would benefit those that are interested.
>>
>> There are plugins for several major editors:
>> - Emacs
>> - Vim
>> - SublimeText
>> - and so on...
>> 
>> [1] http://editorconfig.org/

We have been using 2 space indentation and single quotes with YAML files. Editors which are using the .editorconfig file will change these when editing the files.

To test:
1) Start an editor that supports .editorconfig.
2) Open YAML file mappings.yaml for example.
3) Format the file.
4) Observe that nothing changes.
