gitweb (at my insistence) uses tabs for indent, but spaces for align,
so that the layout is [roughly] preserved independently of the tab
size. IMHO it is superior style, but much harder to check
algorithmically (although I send some sketch of idea how to check that
at least for aligned commands). That is why there is such a big change.

I'd rather have real bugfixes, real documentation improvements, new
features instead of such bikeshedding.  If someone is making a change
somewhere, he/she can fix the whitespace in the neighbourhood.

I agree completely.  Did I suggest otherwise?

Ah, sorry, I have misunderstood.

This is an informational piece, then, isn't it?
