Vim: Indentation (tab) Settings
In the same discussion that I discovered the settings for ruby specific settings I found some tips on best setting of tab and shift related settings
Here is my understanding of the settings:
sts = smart tab stops - these are useful when you hit tab for indenting, when you hit backspace you will go back a sts lenth rather than one space at a time because of et is enabled
sw = shift width - this is useful when you do << or >> for indenting
ts = tab stop - would render the real tab (tab character) properly if found in your code
et = expand tabs - replaces/exapnds tab to spaces
sts=2 sw=2 ts=8 et

The question that comes to mind is what setting is used sts or sw when indenting using ==.
It seems == is relative to previous line so may be none of those.
