Meh.  Asking all submitters to install pgindent is a bit of a burden.
Moreover, sometimes it's better to provide a patch that deliberately
hasn't reindented existing code, for ease of review (say, when you're
adding if() { ... } around some big hunk of code).  I think getting
committers to do this as part of commit is a better workflow.

(Admittedly, since I've been doing that for a long time, I don't
find it to be a burden.  I suppose some committers do.)
