Dear GHCers, Attached is a patch to detab the current HEAD. I've followed the GHC developers Wiki instructions on validation and patch generation. However, the Wiki seems to contain an error (or, at least, does not agree with my version of git). At [1], the wiki says I can submit patches using "git send-email". My git complains that it does not know this command. If this is indeed wrong, could someone in the know update the wiki? Can I consider my patch submitted for consideration or should I send it somewhere else? Regards, Philip

I applaud your enthusiasm but the GHC developers have decided some time ago that this would not be done as one huge change like you are suggesting. Instead files are de-tabbed when other changes are made to those files and the whitespace/layout fixes are commited separately as explained here: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/WorkingConventions/Git Hope this helps, Erik -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Erik de Castro Lopo http://www.mega-nerd.com/
