For a patch that moves things around like this, I would leave everything
as is and not rewrap. That makes it easier to follow what's going on
with "git diff -w", "git show -w" etc.

In .dir-locals.el, there is this configuration for Emacs:

(nxml-mode . ((fill-column . 78)
(indent-tabs-mode . nil)))

So that's one data point about what the line length should be.
