How about setting a standard that will be used in the repository, and providing the indent commands to set it that way, then indenting *every file* in the repository to that standard. Then every developer can use indent or whatever equivalent they prefer when they checkout, if they don't like the chosen style.
Our coding standard is that there shall be no coding standard. As was stated before, whoever creates the file, their style is the style that should be used when anyone makes changes to that file. Concerning the automatic source indenter, I know I would be peeved if i checked my code back out and it was changed to a style I don't like. There are way too many different styles of coding out there, and each developer has a right to like his or her own style, and we shouldn't force one specific style on anyone.
