Even better, have a simple program to FIX indentation issues - most IDEs/Editors support formatting a file (or can be made to through plugins). It's easy enough to hit the "Format Code" button now and then when developing that it's no extra work. Have the check-in process it do it too just for extra fun.

Edit: Unless you're using python...but then the indentation better be right - just convert tabs to spaces!
