reversed. DE. sorry.
gabu said that cosmetics in docs html should not be reversed... what do you think? i'm asking especially Diego and the doc translators...
I'm not fundamentally opposed to nice indentation, the HTML code looks horrible at the moment and is not very readable. The worst is that most files do not have a consistent indentation style but switch from 2 spaces to no spaces and back constantly.
imho it makes impossible/hard to sync translations with a 150k, 95% cosmetics patch...
The easy solution for this is not to mix cosmetics and "real" changes in a single patch. If cosmetics patches are just that they can be safely ignored by the translators. I already extracted the "real" changes from Gabucino's patch as I was about to commit to documentation.html anyway. I hope I did not miss anything. Let's hear the translators on this.
and there is some progress in html->xml, so we shouldn't make big changes, especially not cosmetics ones on the html version since the fork.
I asked Andras to wait with the XML conversion until after 0.90 was released so that we could freeze the docs a week or two for the conversion. It was already going out of sync. Thus this should not be a problem for the conversion. Diego
