[bug#53505] [PATCH] .dir-locals.el: Don't mess up indentation of prepend and append.

[Liliana Marie Prikler]

The current version appears to assume special values in the first and second
package, but it's either all lists (default append) or all package input
expressions (inside modify-inputs), which themselves are either packages
or a list consisting of a package and a string.

* .dir-locals.el: Drop (eval . (put 'prepend 'scheme-indent-function 2))
and (eval . (put 'append 'scheme-indent-function 2)).

Yeah it’s been bothering me too.  :-)

We can keep ‘prepend’ though as it doesn’t clash with anything.

Otherwise LGTM,

It might not clash, but is its behaviour correct?  IIRC, prepend and
append take a list of packages inside modify-inputs, so if I wanted to
add spam, ham, eggs, milk and butter to a python-package, I'd write
that as

(modify-inputs my-package
  (prepend python-spam
       python-ham
     python-eggs
     python-milk
     python-butter))

That doesn't seem right, now does it?

That looks wrong indeed.  Actually these two rules make no sense, right?
I don’t know what I was thinking about.

So I guess you can drop them, sorry for the noise!

Don't worry and thanks for confirming.  I've pushed this now.

Lily, Ludo',

In fact the indentation rule for ‘prepend’ convinced me that I was 
holding it wrong the first time I tried it.  Perhaps I was missing 
a LIST call?  I had to convince myself I really wasn't.

What's the case in which the indent-by-2 rule is correct?  Trying 
to learn here.

Kind regards,

T G-R
