Antonio Ospite b218ab0a5a Documentation: update CodingStyle use of braces
After commit 38829dc9d7 ("Documentation/CodingStyle: flesh out if-else
examples") highlight that if _only_one_ branch of a conditional
statement is a single statement, then braces are to be used on both
branches.

Josh Triplett 6f76b6fcaa CodingStyle: Document the exception of not splitting user-visible strings, for grepping
Patch reviewers now recommend not splitting long user-visible strings,
such as printk messages, even if they exceed 80 columns.  This avoids
breaking grep.  However, that recommendation did not actually appear
anywhere in Documentation/CodingStyle.

See, for example, the thread at
  http://news.gmane.org/find-root.php?message_id=%3c1312215262.11635.15.camel%40Joe%2dLaptop%3e

Harry Wei 38829dc9d7 Documentation/CodingStyle: flesh out if-else examples
There is a missing case for "Chapter 3: Placing Braces and Spaces".  We
often know we should not use braces where a single statement.  The first
case is:

	if (condition)
		action();

Another case is:

	if (condition)
		do_this();
	else
		do_that();

However, I can not find a description of the second case.

Teemu Likonen 0acbc6c651 Documentation: update CodingStyle tips for Emacs users
With the previous Emacs tips example the kernel style was made available
for files in the kernel-tree only. This patch updates the tip to add a
separate cc-mode indent style ("linux-tabs-only"). This makes it easy to
switch between different indent styles and also makes the kernel style
easily available for any filetype mode (c++, awk, ...) that is managed
by the Emacs cc-mode.

Alan Cox dff4982f5c CodingStyle: relax the 80-cole rule
I would suggest this change to make CodingStyle properly reflect the style
used by the kernel, rather than the current wording which is wishful
thinking and misleading, and comes from the same school of thought that
gets off on prescriptive grammar, latin and comp.std.c

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
