Bash Style Guide (In Progress)

Preamble

All bash scripts should have the following lines at the top of the file:

#!/bin/bash
set -euo pipefail

The first line allows the script to be executed from the terminal (e.g. ./my_script rather than bash my_script) and the second line terminates the script if any command fails.

Please also observe the following additional style rules:

• Indent using 2 spaces
