No problem, I should have read the CodingStyle file. @grischka, you are right, tabs are consistently 8 indents.
It is also true that it is not blame-friendly, apart from blaming those who aren't following the style guides, of course ;)

I guess I just regard this a little more important than you guys, I know some projects are even forcing all code through a formatter,
which is too much imo, so it comes down to preference in the end.

Cheers,
Tyge
