Well, let's start small then. I suggested Carpet since it is smaller than Cactus, or all of the ET. But maybe we should start out even smaller -- maybe with one of the CactusUtils thorns. Let's pick Formaline; this one has a formatting that's different from almost all other thorns anyway, and it doesn't see much development.

Hello all,
Anyway -- we should easily be able to all use the same version of clang-format.
Easily: Weeellll maybe.
On my workstation using Debian (testing) the only version that I can easily use are: 3.4 and 3.5 . On my OSX laptop Homebrew installs a version that identifies as 3.7 (no other version provided it seems, at least brew search clang-format only finds the one formula). One should be able to compile clang-format from scratch, I have never done so though.
I'd normally suggest to try this (now since it is at the beginning of a release lifetime) and see how well we fare. However I don't know how one would "undo" the use of automatic formatting of the repository during the testing stage if we end up not liking the results.
Yours, Roland
