Hi,

any help on making KDevelop better is very welcome!

The VCS code is a little convoluted, but that sounds useful and doable.

Never seen this, guess one would need to figure out the exact case it happens 
in first :/

We once had code modifying cmake files, but I think it died together with the 
cmake-parser-based cmake support ...
The simple case may be realistic to get right, in the general case cmake is a 
very complex language to modify automatically.

Huh?

There were several similar fixes over time, this should also be doable.

Never seen this ...?

I think this is similar to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=393779 ... 
usually has to do with some clang setup issue

Yes ;) Edit -> Input Modes

Would be great to see some patches from you!

Best,
