When making commits, the branches to target are not clearly defined in
public documentation, and frequently change. As the development branch
and the earliest maintained branches progress, it should be reflected in
CODING_STANDARDS.md.
All new code of the whole pull request, including one or several files
that are either new files or modified ones, are contributed under the
BSD-new license. I am contributing on behalf of my employer Amazon Web
Services.
This is intended to be the start of a (not complete) coding standards
document we can refer contributors to. This can be modified to add more
nuances and become stricter over time. It can also have additional
content for other file types (CMake, YACC, etc).
It does not cover plugins which should each individually have their own coding
standards.
