[issue5611] Auto-detect indentation in C source in vimrc

[Georg Brandl]

Georg Brandl <georg at python.org> added the comment:

You should restrict the search to the first 100 lines or so, if
possible.  Many of our C files have inconsistent indentation, and using
this script with such a file, automatically relying on it to do the
right thing, will result in even more inconsistencies.  Restricting the
search to the beginning of a file greatly reduces the probability of it
finding a stray tab indentation.
