Lately I've seen a lot of diffs to .i18n files that look like this:
- (50 lines with one number of spaces in them) + (51 lines with a different number of spaces in them, and one of the lines is new)
I think it would greatly simplify change tracking if we used more consistent spacing in the localization files, eg changing this:
+ 'Search' => array( 'Sichen' ), + 'Resetpass' => array( 'Passwuert zrécksetzen' ), to this:
+ 'Search' => array( 'Sichen' ), + 'Resetpass' => array( 'Passwuert zrécksetzen' ),
While it's cute, and sometimes helpful, to align columns in files that are manually maintained, this:
1) Has no benefit to localization done via BetaWiki
2) Obscures the actual changes made in a commit when the number of columns gets bumped, making overall code maintenance more difficult.
