Currently there is no visual break between the condition of a control statement and the body. For example:
0if (IsThisTrue() ||
1 IsThatTrue()) {
2 DoThis;
3 DoThat;
4}
Fix this by allowing the brace to be on a new line.
Currently clang-format won’t re-format existing code, presumably due to the line-limit setting. However, the new line can be manually inserted and clang-format will no longer remove it with this new setting. So this can be tested by “injecting” a newline after a multi line control statement and calling clang-format-diff, as explained in the dev notes.
Example location to test:
0diff --git a/src/net_processing.cpp b/src/net_processing.cpp
