Re: [O] org-indent-mode and erratic checkbox behavior?

Ok, so sorry for the noise. Now I do.

I kept looking and I believe that it's 2 minor modes that do not like to work 
with each other.

git-gutter and org-indent.

When no modification (git) on the current buffer, everything is good -
org/org-indent does as expected.

When modifications if present, git-gutter add some information on the
left border and this messes around somehow with org-indent which then
does as described in the first part.

In any case, no worry for the org team :D then.

Again, apologies.

Cheers,
Antoine
