I would love to see this patch merged (or at least some feedback on
the latest version). I think it's pretty trivial and really low risk
of breaking anyone's workflow, and it would *significantly* improve my
own workflow.

Matthias mentioned on Discord that our vendored in pg_bsd_indent uses
a tabwidth of 8 and that was showing up ugly in his editor. I updated
the patch to include a fix for that too.

Commits

  1. Add script to keep .editorconfig in sync with .gitattributes

  2. Remove non-existing file from .gitattributes
