Hi devs,
We need to take a decision. There are 2 places where we have XMLs:
A) In our SCM when we store our documents and when we call mvn xar:format
B) When we export XARs
Right now we pretty print in A) (very recent, I've done this a few days ago) but not
in B) which is not optimal since users absolutely need to call xar:format to be able to
diff their output with what is in our SCM.
* Solution 1: we don't pretty print in A and B
* Solution 2: we pretty print in A and B
What would you prefer?
I'm not against either of the options. Usually I prefer pretty-printed
stuff, since it's easier to edit properly indented XML, but the XML
files aren't supposed to be edited by hand.
Let's say a slight +1 for pretty-printing both A and B.
