Use-Braces

Sourcery rule id: use-braces

Description

Use block braces for ifs, whiles, etc.

Before

if (true)
  do_something()

After

if (true) {
  do_something()
}

Explanation

It is recommended to always use braces and create explicit statement blocks.

Using the allowed syntax to just write a single statement can lead to very confusing situations, especially where subsequently a developer might add another statement while forgetting to add the braces (meaning that this wouldn't be included in the condition).
