+  Source files can be reindented using clang-format setup in .clang-format. XNU follow a variant of WebKit style for source code formatting. Please refer to format styles at http://www.webkit.org/coding/coding-style.html. Further options about style options is available at http://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangFormatStyleOptions.html
