Hi all,

This SO post
<https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51929037/llvm-coding-style-regarding-consecutive-angle-brackets-in-templates?noredirect=1#comment90813882_51929037>
is
regarding the status of consecutive angle brackets in templates.
I'm writing here too, hoping to get a certified answer.

Since it is legal to write:

    vector<vector<float>> MyMatrix;

and not just:

    // vector<vector<float> > MyMatrix;

I was somewhat surprised to find many > > patterns when grepping llvm 6.0.0.

*What are the considerations against sed-replacing all > > with >>?*

Is it only the "don't fix it if it's not broken" consideration?
Thanks!
