FWIW, that's the approach that go takes - not only for committing to go
itself, but it is *strongly* recommended[1] that anyone writing any code
in go makes running `go fmt` a standard part of their workflow. In my
experience, it makes collaborating noticably easier because you never
need to worry about formatting differences. FYI, vim makes this easy via
vim-autoformat[2] (which also supports line-by-line formatting if the
format tool allows it); presumably any modern editor has similar support.
