[U-Boot-Users] script to delete all trailing space

[U-Boot-Users] script to delete all trailing space

[Aubrey Li]

Hi all Custodians,

I'm suffering from coding style issues when I request a blackfin git
pull to the upstream u-boot. Here I wrote a simple script(attached) to
delete all the trailing space in the files. Hope it's useful for you
and feel free to re-write it.

Best Regards,
-Aubrey

This will typically NOT do what you might expect.

strip - Discard symbols from object files

You are wrong. If the name of the function in the script is the same
as the external application, the function will be executed, NOT the
external application.

But it might be less confusing if the script function had a distinct and
unique name.....
e.g. ali_strip

Sure, re-post the script.

Folks,

So, there are a few things git provides that might help with
some of these issues.  The case of a line starting with a
space and followed by a tab can be identified, as well as
automatically stripping trailing whitespace from source lines.

You might investigate the "--check" options in "git apply"
or "git am", and you might investigate "--whitespace=strip"
as well.

IIRC, you can also use 'git-config apply.whitespace strip' to set this
option permanently for your local repo.

Why don't you just use a text editor that takes care of this problem for 
you?

Because there are a bunch of files need to be formated.

BTW, there is already a script that takes care of %90 of all
whitespace issues.  Look at scripts/Lindent in the Linux source tree.

The only whitespace is won't fix is whitespace in comments.

Could you please add this to the u-boot wiki?

Lindent can't deal with assemble file. And 90% is far away from enough. The
patch should match the u-boot coding style requirements 100%.
