I got a review comment [1] because I forgot to do "space before paren". I realized I forgot to run check_GNU_style.py, a script from the GCC repo, which warns about things like this. [ The python script has been around since 2017 (and an earlier version written in shell script since 2010). ] So for this change in gdb/gdb.c: ... - return gdb_main (&args); + return gdb_main(&args); ... we get: ... $ ./contrib/check_GNU_style.py <(git diff) === ERROR type #1: there should be exactly one space between function name \ and parenthesis (1 error(s)) === gdb/gdb.c:38:17: return gdb_main(&args); ... Add a pre-commit hook to do this automatically. This copies two files from the GCC repo to root-level contrib, and adds a wrapper script gdb/contrib/check-gnu-style-pre-commit.sh (checked with shellcheck). The wrapper script is setup to not fail on violations, so the messages are informational at this point. I'm not sure all checks are 100% applicable to our coding style. The python script check_GNU_style.py has two dependencies: unidiff and termcolor, which users need to install themselves. The check is added at the pre-commit stage. I also considered post-commit, and I'm still not sure what is the better choice. As with all pre-commit checks, if the check is not to your liking, you can use SKIP=check-gnu-style to skip it. In summary, with the new pre-commit check we get: ... $ git commit -a -m "style error" black...............................................(no files to check)Skipped flake8..............................................(no files to check)Skipped isort...............................................(no files to check)Skipped codespell...........................................(no files to check)Skipped check-include-guards................................(no files to check)Skipped check-gnu-style.........................................................Passed - hook id: check-gnu-style - duration: 0.04s === ERROR type #1: there should be exactly one space between function name \ and parenthesis (1 error(s)) === gdb/gdb.c:38:17: return gdb_main(&args); tclint..............................................(no files to check)Skipped black...............................................(no files to check)Skipped flake8..............................................(no files to check)Skipped codespell...........................................(no files to check)Skipped check-include-guards................................(no files to check)Skipped codespell-log...........................................................Passed - hook id: codespell-log - duration: 0.19s tclint...............................................(no files to check)Skipped [master $hex] style error ...
