Coding guidelines for braces + spaces - link 404's

I have been working on a patch for Postgres. I'm curious about the
suggested style for braces around if statements - some places don't
include braces around an if statement body, if the if statement body is
a single line.

Generally, the braces should be omitted if the body is only a single
line. An exception is sometimes made for symmetry if another branch
uses more than one line. So

if (foo)
bar();

but

if (foo)
{
bar();
}
else
{
baz();
qux();
}

The Postgres Wiki has a bit that says to "See also the Formatting section
<http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/source-format.html&gt; in the
documentation," but that link 404's, so I'm not sure where it is supposed
to go.

Obsolete link, evidently. It should point to

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/source-format.html

Will fix.
