readability-braces-around-statements
====================================

`google-readability-braces-around-statements` redirects here as an alias for
this check.

Checks that bodies of ``if`` statements and loops (``for``, ``do while``, and
``while``) are inside braces.

Before:

.. code-block:: c++

  if (condition)
    statement;

After:

.. code-block:: c++

  if (condition) {
    statement;
  }

Options
-------

.. option:: ShortStatementLines

   Defines the minimal number of lines that the statement should have in order
   to trigger this check.

   The number of lines is counted from the end of condition or initial keyword
   (``do``/``else``) until the last line of the inner statement. Default value
   `0` means that braces will be added to all statements (not having them
   already).
