Clarification of new-lining parens and curly braces

[gylaz]

Are we talking about keeping both the open and the closed parentheses on their own new lines? What about the curly braces?

If we're only talking about the closing paren/curly, then I would suggest specifying that.

Can you give us some example of the code you're talking about?

This is the current wording:

• If you break up an argument list, keep the parenthesis on its own line.
• If you break up a hash, keep the curly braces on their own lines.

From reading the above I can understand the following:

user = User.new
user.attributes =
{
  first_name: 'Lance',
  last_name: 'Armstrong',
  body_build: 'athletic'
}

or:

user = User.new
user.attributes = {
  first_name: 'Lance',
  last_name: 'Armstrong',
  body_build: 'athletic'
}

I assume the second variation is correct, where only the closing curly braces (or paren) is kept on it's own new line. If so, i'm proposing is re-wording the two bullet points to this:

• If you break up an argument list, keep the closing parenthesis on its own line.
• If you break up a hash, keep the closing curly brace on its own line.

The proposed re-wording makes sense to me.

Thanks, @gylaz. I've improved the wording at your suggestion.
