Subject: [PATCH] CODING_STYLE: explicitly call out label indentation
Date: Mon, 26 Nov 2018 02:04:05 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5BFBB70502000078001FFBDC@prv1-mh.provo.novell.com> (raw)

Since the behavior of "diff -p" to use an unindented label as context
identifier often makes it harder to review patches, make explicit the
requirement for labels to be indented.

+Due to the behavior of GNU diffutils "diff -p", labels should be
+indented by at least one blank.  Non-case labels inside switch() bodies
+are preferred to be indented the same as the block's case labels.
