If RTEMS is going to adopt clang-format, I suggest that you provide a .clang-format file in the source root that captures your preferences. That way, if you choose to use Google style + deviations its straightforward to do so. The command becomes `clang-format -style=file -i some-file.cc` which is the most common way that third-party tools use it anyway. > > The Google C++ Style leaves some white space choices undefined.

For example, the Google base style uses majority-vote-in-this-file to align pointer and reference types' *, &, and &&. If RTEMS has a stronger opinion, then just flip the appropriate switch in your .clang-format file.
