FWIW, FreeBSD's style(9) man page

Indentation is an 8 character tab. Second level indents are four
spaces.
I've always used 8 character tabs (though in my own code I don't stick
to style(9)). As others have commented, it's the Unix standard, and
the confusion between tabs and spaces is bad enough without changing
the relationship.
