[Diffutils-devel] FYI: maint: convert all TABs to equivalent spaces in indentation

[Jim Meyering]

As promised in https://bugs.gnu.org/31105, I have just made this change
and will push it tomorrow.

commit badccffea49ddc26b72208366f00429cc7ffb9e1 (HEAD -> master)
Author: Jim Meyering <address@hidden>

    maint: convert all TABs to equivalent spaces in indentation

    Using this file,

    cat > leading-blank.exempt <<\EOF
    (\.gitmodules|help2man|pre-commit)$
    (?:^|\/)ChangeLog[^/]*$
    (?:^|\/)(?:GNU)?[Mm]akefile[^/]*$
    \.(?:am|mk)$
    EOF

    run the following command to convert all non-conforming leading white
    space to be all spaces:

    git ls-files \
      | pcregrep -vf leading-blank.exempt \
      | xargs pcregrep -l '^ *\t' \
      | xargs perl -MText::Tabs -ni -le \
        '$m=/^( *\t[ \t]*)(.*)/; print $m ? expand($1) . $2 : $_'

    Since that changed old NEWS, I also ran "make update-NEWS-hash"
    to update the old_NEWS_hash value in cfg.mk.
