Without taking sides: the last grep is including else without either { or }. [~/work/glusterfs] sh$ git grep '} else {' | wc -l 1331 [~/work/glusterfs] sh$ git grep 'else {' | grep -v '}' | wc -l 142 So going by just numbers, "} else {" is 10x more common than "}\n else {". I also find that believable based on familiarity of seeing this pattern in the code. Either way, good idea to stick to one and not allow both in future code. Thanks
