Hi,

I'm recently considering to cross-port btrfs-progs/U-boot btrfs code to 
GRUB, so that we can have more unified code base, with more features 
(and of-course bug fixes)

But the first blockage I'm hitting is the code style.

It looks like GRUB is using its own code style which is not found in 
kernel/btrfs-progs/U-boot.

But I didn't find where the code style doc is, so is it a hard 
requirement to follow the existing style even we're cross-porting most 
code unmodified from other projects?

It's largely based on the GNU coding style. The `indent` program can do
most of the work for you.

Certain parts of grub that are imported more-or-less unmodified do
follow their own style, e.g. grub-core/lib/json/jsmn.h

I'm not a maintainer so I can't tell you how hard the style requirement
is.

Kind regards,
Daniel

Thanks,
Qu
