[lxc-devel] [PATCH 02/21] configure.ac: Cleanup, comments, indent, ...

Stéphane Graber stgraber at ubuntu.com
Thu Jan 3 17:24:03 UTC 2013


This commit doesn't do any functional change to configure.ac but does a fair
amount of cleaning up.

It re-orders the various blocks by type (options, checks, expands, ...).
It also consistently uses tabs for indents and moves all user visible strings
between double-quotes (makes my syntax highlighter much happier).
