I agree we should do this for forky cycle. Can we agree the style we want? As a starter, I suggest (debian/src/README.style) Shell script style ================== Scripts should follow the style produced by shfmt(1) utilising the -ci and -s options. That is - tab indented - case indented - ';' rather than a newline between conditional test and 'then' - no space before redirection operators In addition:- - prefer '[ ]' to test(1) or builtin Comments? Changes? Mark
