There are a few files that use four spaces for indentation, such as the nginx templates and fixtures template. Shall we take these into consideration as well?

@p0pr0ck5 I know, and a lot of maybe old code that was using different indentation (4 spaces is most common, I think). All the discussion is welcomed. I don't have preference in any direction at this point. I merely did this to pass on some silent information.

Yeah, I'm in favor of this, I'm unsure of how these files will interact with such a config. Is it possible to add entries for these files with the correct indent_size value?

@p0pr0ck5, certainly we can add different configs for the files that currently have different indentation. However, not sure if it worth it if they will later on follow the same formatting. What do others think?

I was just about to propose a PR adding an equivalent .editorconfig file. Text editors do not reformat a file when they open it, so even if the configuration doesn't match, nothing will break caused by this. Here is my proposed revised (and tested) .editorconfig file, can push this to this PR if accepted:

root                     = true

[*]
end_of_line              = lf
insert_final_newline     = true
trim_trailing_whitespace = true
charset                  = utf-8

[*.lua]
indent_style             = space
indent_size              = 2

[kong/templates/nginx*]
indent_style             = space
indent_size              = 4

[*.template]
indent_style             = space
indent_size              = 4

[Makefile]
indent_style             = tab

Force-pushed an updated version of the file as per @bungle's request.

LGTM, but I cannot approve this as I created it.
