I think it's up to the specific plugin of whatever IDE one uses on how the configuration is applied. But I agree with you. One doesn't want to see non-trivial diffs in the commits. I would think that a user who has the knowledge to consume these format configuration files would also know to remove irrelevant changes when doing a commit?

And I assume a once-off total reformatting of the project is going to create too many conflicts on all the branches and forks? I'm not too concerned with how the curly braces are positioned, but consistent indentation and trailing whitespace removal would be nice for a start.

No particular objection. I'd just try to avoid having cosmetic changes making it more difficult to see what actually changed in a commit, so I'd suggest to configure editors so that they only apply the conventions to edited lines, not over the whole file. Is this possible?

Hi,

I was wondering whether there are any objections against adding .editorconfig files to all the projects. This will assist in maintaining consistent formatting (especially indentation). Most IDEs are supported. See http://editorconfig.org/ for more info.
