             Summary: Format android.json and ios.json (plugins directory) - currently they have no line breaks / indentation
                 Key: CB-5882
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5882
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: CLI
    Affects Versions: 3.3.0
            Reporter: Adam George
            Priority: Minor


When adding new plugins, or modifying a plugin (such that the plugin may have new permissions, or new files to copy), the ios.json and android.json plugin files are modified/updated.

The problem with that the json contents is not formatted, and appears as one long line of text.

I run `git diff` and I can't see what changed. It's quite annoying.

I'm currently putting these files into version control.  Maybe in the future when the CLI is more mature, I can treat them like build artefacts and git-ignore them, but for now I need to keep them, so they really need to be more readable.

Is it possible to format the json data before writing the file?
