[llvm-dev] amount of camelCase refactoring causing some downstream overhead (original) (raw)

Hi there,

At the end of last week we saw a number of commits go in that were camelCasing batches of MCStreamer::Emit* and AsmPrinter::Emit* functions.

For example:

Unfortunately all these individual commits trigger the same merge conflicts over and over again with our downstream repo, which takes us some manual intervention every time.

I understand uniformity is a nice to have, but: 1 - is it worth it to do this work right now? I can remember the casing debate a few months back, which seems unrelated to this work which seems manual, but I'm unsure of the outcome. 2 - If this work should be done, it would be nice if all of the work is done in one batch, to save us some of the downstream overhead.

Thanks /Ties
