It's not that the code isn't clear enough, it's just a matter of
reducing code nesting and making code look easier on the eye.

Let's quote from the f-spot hacking document:

        Since we are using 8-space tabs, you might want to consider the Linus
        Torvalds trick to reduce code nesting.  Many times in a loop, you will
        find yourself doing a test, and if the test is true, you will
        nest.  Many times this can be changed.  Example:

                for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
                        if (Something (i)) {
                                DoMore ();
                        }
                }

        This take precious space, instead write it like this:

                for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
                        if (! Something (i))
                                continue;
                        DoMore ();
                }
