Platform-releng/Formatting And Naming Conventions

< Platform-releng
Revision as of 04:14, 27 November 2020 by Unnamed Poltroon (Talk) (Naming Contentions: Page never contained meaningful content.)

These guidelines apply primarily to the "eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator" repository, but also for any new work done in "eclipse.platform" and "eclipse.platform.releng"

Formatting

These conventions apply to all types of files: Bash scripts, Ant Scripts, Maven/Tycho files, Property files, etc.

  • Use spaces, instead of tab characters
  • Use 2 spaces for indentation, for all types of text files.
  • Ordinarily, leave "line breaks" as they are (that is, as each author originally had them) unless substantial reason to change.
  • Make formatting changes separate from content changes (that is, patches and commits should have only "content changes" when fixing bugs, etc., but can be preceded or followed by a commit that makes formatting changes).
