Re: [PATCH] Add clang-format config to contrib folder

As a reference file I attach gcc/tree-ssa-uninit.c file.
Feel free to comment the suggested configuration file.
This is fine.  Given that gnu-indent seems to muck up C++ badly in my
experience, clang-format may be a better long term solution.  I'd really like
to get to a point one day where formatting is a commit hook so that things are
always kept properly formatted.

Which is a sad demonstration of how the refusal of GCC's FEs being re-used for other purposes by GNU tools (and others) was and is a mistake, and it is leading to GNU tools being replaced by LLVM-based ones (ultimately affecting GCC and GDB themselves).

Cheers,
