uncrustify

Keeping a consistent coding style through the whole project is important to keep developers mental sanity =) . It makes it possible to have editors configured to keep the code format on any file (per language) and makes it easier to read the project code.

In order to keep Soletta™ project's coding style every pull request is checked by our CI. It's done using check-style script.

We suggest to run it locally before submitting contributions, but output slightly varies depending on uncrustify version.

Soletta project's check-style script requires uncrustify-0.60 or later (we've done some checks with version 0.62 and it seems compatible).
