(Later, commit 56fb890 changed perl-continued-statement-offset to 2.) This
indents braces (perltidy aligns the brace with "if", but perl-mode adds
perl-continued-statement-offset + perl-continued-brace-offset = 6 columns):
if (-s "src/backend/snowball/stopwords/$lang.stop")
{
$stop = ", StopWords=$lang";
}
If I run perltidy on 60d9979, then run perl-mode indent, the diff between the
perltidy run and perl-mode indent run is:
129 files changed, 8468 insertions(+), 8468 deletions(-)
If I add (perl-continued-brace-offset . -2):
119 files changed, 3515 insertions(+), 3515 deletions(-)
If I add (perl-indent-continued-arguments . 4) as well:
86 files changed, 2626 insertions(+), 2626 deletions(-)
If I add (perl-indent-parens-as-block . t) as well:
65 files changed, 2373 insertions(+), 2373 deletions(-)
That's with GNU Emacs 24.5.1. Versions 24.3.1 and 21.4.1 show similar trends,
though 21.4.1 predates perl-indent-continued-arguments and
perl-indent-parens-as-block.
I'm attaching the patch to make it so, along with a patch that illustrates my
testing method. "sh reindent-perl.sh" will test emacs.samples using your
Emacs installation. (I don't plan to push the testing patch.)
