[Bf-committers] Code Quality Day - 7/Aug

[Sergey Sharybin]

Hi,

This Friday we have August's code quality day [1].

The purpose of this day is to solve long-standing technical debt, and to
deploy new techniques and tools to help our work as developers. Over time
these practices should naturally be incorporated in the day-to-day code.
But the old code is nice to take the time for house cleaning.

We will carry on with the Clang-Tidy project [2], which is about half-way
through from what we plan to be its minimal core integration!

A small teaser, once we are done with the "core" warnings, we will unlock
the "modernize" class of Clang-Tidy warnings which will help bring the code
to a more modern state!

If someone is less enthusiastic about doing "boring" code cleanup, there is
an entry in the tracker with all the other proposed tasks [3].

And everyone is welcome to help!

For feedback on what to do, code review, and everything else we should use
#blender-coders in blender.chat.
