@Sammers21 @g4s8 I just released version 5.1.0 which allows you to bypass the validation of indentation.

However, this might result in a different YAML than what you expect, so I only recommend you do it if you have proper tests for your code. More details here.

I’m closing this Issue now as I think all the related bugs have been fixed. Please feel free to open another one if you still have problems.

@Sammers21 The bug about reading mappings within sequences, which start at the dash line, has just been fixed and released with version 5.0.3. See here.

I’ll continue with #361 and see if I can implement some default formatting rules.
