Hi,

the indention style is a mere adaption of Allman albeit "saving" space since it
folds continuing lines of a new block content in the very line of the opening
brace:

Artistic style implements it as well:
http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/natty/man1/astyle.1.html

I have not yet looked at the soure code of clang-format so I cannot say how
complicated its addition would be nor have a looked around for a precise style
guide where someone uses/describes this particular style.
Maybe by having this bug report open this beloved indention style could gain
some interest ;)

Regards,
Leon
