Hmm, is the downside of doing a full codebase reformat greater than always doing the code formatting manually? Probably it is, otherwise it would have already be done :)
If we would have such a big commit we could list it in a `.git-blame-ignore-revs` file so it will ignored by git blames.
Yes, that's great for git blame. The bigger problem though is that a bulk reformat will immediately kill the ability of distro maintainers to cleanly cherry-pick patches across the big reformat commit. Cherry-picking the reformat likely won't be clean either, so they'll be faced with many patches needing manual editting.
Yes, but isn't that already the case most of the time? But since I do not backport libvirt fixes, I cannot answer this for sure :) Anyhow, we shouldn't misuse this mail thread for the side discussion :) Is it worth starting a separate thread for it or is the answer a clear NACK?
The tricky question is whether it is none the less worthwhile doing it. The distro maintainer pain will be very real, but also somewhat timelimited, as the need to backport fixes to a given release as it ages.
If the people doing the backporting are more or less libvirt developers, it might be a good trade for them in the long run.
