-/**
- * Represents a position in the model tree.
- *
- * A position is represented by its {@link module:engine/model/position~Position#root} and
- * a {@link module:engine/model/position~Position#path} in that root.
- *
- * You can create position instances via its constructor or the `createPosition*()` factory methods of
- * {@link module:engine/model/model~Model} and {@link module:engine/model/writer~Writer}.
- *
- * **Note:** Position is based on offsets, not indexes. This means that a position between two text nodes
- * `foo` and `bar` has offset `3`, not `1`. See {@link module:engine/model/position~Position#path} for more information.
- *
- * Since a position in the model is represented by a {@link module:engine/model/position~Position#root position root} and
- * {@link module:engine/model/position~Position#path position path} it is possible to create positions placed in non-existing places.
- * This requirement is important for operational transformation algorithms.
- *
- * Also, {@link module:engine/model/operation/operation~Operation operations}
- * kept in the {@link module:engine/model/document~Document#history document history}
- * are storing positions (and ranges) which were correct when those operations were applied, but may not be correct
- * after the document has changed.
- *
- * When changes are applied to the model, it may also happen that {@link module:engine/model/position~Position#parent position parent}
- * will change even if position path has not changed. Keep in mind, that if a position leads to non-existing element,
- * {@link module:engine/model/position~Position#parent} and some other properties and methods will throw errors.
- *
- * In most cases, position with wrong path is caused by an error in code, but it is sometimes needed, as described above.

+ * Represents a position in the model tree.
+ *
+ * A position is represented by its {@link module:engine/model/position~Position#root} and
+ * a {@link module:engine/model/position~Position#path} in that root.
+ *
+ * You can create position instances via its constructor or the `createPosition*()` factory methods of
+ * {@link module:engine/model/model~Model} and {@link module:engine/model/writer~Writer}.
+ *
+ * **Note:** Position is based on offsets, not indexes. This means that a position between two text nodes
+ * `foo` and `bar` has offset `3`, not `1`. See {@link module:engine/model/position~Position#path} for more information.
+ *
+ * Since a position in the model is represented by a {@link module:engine/model/position~Position#root position root} and
+ * {@link module:engine/model/position~Position#path position path} it is possible to create positions placed in non-existing places.
+ * This requirement is important for operational transformation algorithms.
+ *
+ * Also, {@link module:engine/model/operation/operation~Operation operations}
+ * kept in the {@link module:engine/model/document~Document#history document history}
+ * are storing positions (and ranges) which were correct when those operations were applied, but may not be correct
+ * after the document has changed.
+ *
+ * When changes are applied to the model, it may also happen that {@link module:engine/model/position~Position#parent position parent}
+ * will change even if position path has not changed. Keep in mind, that if a position leads to non-existing element,
+ * {@link module:engine/model/position~Position#parent} and some other properties and methods will throw errors.
+ *
+ * In most cases, position with wrong path is caused by an error in code, but it is sometimes needed, as described above.
