one of the coolest config changes: indent 2 instead of 4. improves readability, more side-by-side views

@drechsler I'd vote against that because deep nesting doesn't signal the need for refactoring. That seems to have been the reason for the indentation of 8 in Linux kernel development.
The 8 seem exaggerated to me and with the large modem displays and IDEs we use, the effect is lowered anyway but I'm still a fan of the default setting of 4.

@netbird fair enough, each project has a different focus, so "it depends".
Some people also like Fibanocci indentation for that reason ;-)
