Thanks.  I was being lazy when I said the above ;-)

Teaching how to fish instead of giving fish, the way I would have done is

   $ git log --no-merges --stat --full-diff .clang-format

and inspect what they use. The ones that used "clang-format:" are indeed very similar in spirit to what this one does, I would say.

Thanks.
