I believe the C spec requires that files end in a newline, though I
couldn't comment on the c++ spec. Possibly redundant to list this as
WebKit style issue, if required by the language?

s/who//. In fact it might be clearer to say "Files should end

I always follow this rule, but I don't remember why it came to
exist. Is this convention needed for source control or something?
It’s not needed for anything. Tools like diff produce slightly
unpleasant output for files that don’t end in newlines, so we
include them.
