Picture of absurd indentation when viewed on GitHub
For context, see <a href="https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/45136">https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/45136</a>
It's currently not possible to have ternary continuation lines use the normal
continuation behavior. Clang-format insists on aligning ternary continuation
lines such that both of the possible values are aligned. In some cases this
leads to absurd code formatting. In the snippet I pointed out on GitHub, the
code doesn't start until column 61 (or column 121 for anyone using 8-size tabs
or viewing on GitHub) and continues for 60 more characters (for anyone using
8-size tabs, this means that the code doesn't end until column 181).
I would like to instead use the normal continuation line behavior, with the
"ContinuationIndentWidth" setting, so that ternary continuation lines are
always a fixed amount of width from the start of the main line just as other
continuation lines already do. Perhaps there should be a setting called
something like "AlignTernaryOperators" with a default setting of true, and then
I could set this to false to get the desired behavior (in the linked snippet
this would mean the line starts at column 25, or 49 for 8-size tabs).</pre>
