meson: add rule to run 'git clang-format'
The Makefile has a 'style' rule to run 'git clang-format'. While Meson intrinsically supports a 'clang-format' target, which can be run when using the ninja backend by running 'ninja clang-format', this runs the formatting on all existing files. Our Meson build doesn't yet support a way to run 'git clang-format', which runs the formatter between the working directory and commit provided. Add a new 'style' target to Meson to mimic the target in the Makefile. Signed-off-by: Karthik Nayak <karthik.188@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
