26 | The contrib/vscode/init.sh script creates configuration files that enable | |

33 | This is adapted from Linux's suggestion in its CodingStyle document: | |
34 | ||
cf6cac20 | 35 | - To follow the rules in CodingGuidelines, it's useful to put the following in |
7a06a854 CG |
36 | GIT_CHECKOUT/.dir-locals.el, assuming you use cperl-mode: |
37 | ---- | |
38 | ;; note the first part is useful for C editing, too | |
39 | ((nil . ((indent-tabs-mode . t) | |
40 | (tab-width . 8) | |
41 | (fill-column . 80))) | |
42 | (cperl-mode . ((cperl-indent-level . 8) | |
43 | (cperl-extra-newline-before-brace . nil) | |
44 | (cperl-merge-trailing-else . t)))) | |
45 | ---- | |

47 | For a more complete setup, since Git's codebase uses a coding style | |
48 | similar to the Linux kernel's style, tips given in Linux's CodingStyle | |
49 | document can be applied here too. | |
