Framework: Proposal: Add .editorconfig

[assertchris]

This would make it easier to contribute as many editors support the use of .editorconfig (through plugins and whatnot). Will sort out things like line endings and indentation.

[taylorotwell]

Any other popular open source frameworks have this?

[Anahkiasen]

Symfony does, not sure about the others.

[taylorotwell]

Fine with me I guess. :smile:

[justinpage]

@taylorotwell do you use an editorconfig file personally? And if so, what is your settings? Are they similar to the above Symfony example?

[lucasff]

Bring it back!

It should already be on new installs.

Describe this file in the official documentation, why it is needed. In the off-documentation there is not a line about it, it's bad.

[giovannipds]

The file just ensure codes / editor configs and practices. It's just good for coding looking similar from dev to dev.
