Commits

Try to follow these guidelines:

• Commit messages
  • Short commit message headline (if possible, up to 60 characters)
  • Blank line before message body
  • Message should be like: "Add foo ...", "Fix ..."
• Git workflow
  • Every branch will be rebased before merging it with --no-ff
  • No merging of master into feature branch
  • User branches might be heavily rebased/reordered/squashed because we like a clean history

Code

• No Tabs please
• No trailing whitespace please
• Look at existing code for formatting ;-)
