[lwip-devel] [task #6597] Cleaner source code regulations are needed

[Jonathan Larmour]

Follow-up Comment #9, task #6597 (project lwip):

>If I understand the problem, your diff tools dosen't have any

indent can move things between lines too.

e.g. for Simon's suggested use of indent it will change:
  if (x)
  {
     foo(x);
  }
to:
  if (x) {
    foo(x);
  }

GNU diff -w reports these as different. More importantly, so does cvs diff
-w.

As for doing it separately... it is better to be separate, that's all. But
it's probably better it gets done at all, than it doesn't, if that makes a
difference.
