John makes some good points. I think the path of least resistance would
be to check and fix on the MLO branch just before you integrate some
files - and just the files you are going to integrate. Or do the same as
this time - integrate with style violations, then fix immediately on the
main line. I'll leave it up to you, Rushan.
