hpa, where do I get Nindent? I Googled for it but with no luck. Also,
I noticed that each file is commited independently in the git
repository, therefore you must have used an automation script to do
that. Do you have it available, so I wouldn't need to write another
one?

Oops, I apologize for that. The irony is that I teach this to my
students every year, but it seems that my Java habits can take
precedence from time to time... Is there any way I could get a warning
from the compiler when it encounters this situation?
