Re: [PATCH] Add line-wrapping guidelines to the coding style documentation

Help new contributors by providing some advice about line-wrapping; the

We already have this:

 - We try to keep to at most 80 characters per line.

Besides, is it really necessary to be as explicit as you word it?  IOW is 
this patch needed?

Because if we go down that road, we might very well end up with a 
CodingGuidelines document that is larger than git's source code.
