Looks like most people in this thread support using LLVM style in LLD. I also had an offline discussion and many people wanted to have one coding style in all LLVM projects. So I'm convinced that we should do that.

I'm going to create a patch to rename all variables if no one objects.
I object!

would touch all the lines. Diff is not powerful enough to trace the history beyond variable renaming. svn blame would become useless.

"useless" is much too strong a description.

If svn blame points to the reformat commit, then simply re-run the blame on the commit before the reformat.

If total reformats are frequent then this is impractical. If they happen once in five years then it's not really a big deal. Wrapper scripts can even be pretty easily written to do this automatically.
