Does your opinion indicate also that you would appreciate another adjustment
around the quoted sentence from "Chapter 7: Centralized exiting of functions"
of the document "CodingStyle"?

Would you like to achieve that the potential for confusion will be reduced
a bit more there?

I am unsure on how this "story" will evolve further.

Will the indentation rules become any more precise for Linux source code?

The software update "Set git diff driver for C source code files" is also
interesting for current versions.

Will language-specific rules which are supported by recent Git software
influence any capabilities for the command "diff --show-c-function"?
