Git blame

This project has big commits in the history which for example update all line endings. To improve the output of git-blame, consider setting:

git config blame.ignoreRevsFile .git-blame-ignore-revs

This will ignore all revisions mentioned in the .git-blame-ignore-revs file. GitHub does this by default.

Code style

The code is formatted using clang format in Qt Creator. .clang-format contains the style file for clang format.
