I think that we should be looking at making pgindent runnable by lone
hackers at home in their patched trees. That way they fix their patches
by simply running it when it's run on the CVS tree, before doing an
"update". That should remove/reduce the merge problems.
... at least in CVS; not sure what would happen if this was done in a
GIT repository. (It would probably require a rebase, but then what do I
know about GIT?).
BTW I think it's better to redirect this kind of discussion to -hackers.
