That leads to the question if you'd welcome a patch adding a
.dir-locals.el to the repository with the right settings so that
it'll just work for contributors using the One True Editor. Would
you?
If your one true editor honored what is in .editorconfig, perhaps
there was no need for us to be having this conversation? I dunno.
Ah, I'm sorry, I wasn't aware of that. I've installed the editorconfig
Emacs plugin [1] which seems to do the trick.
Bye,
