I'm using the same process, but with the 'bear' command:

I know other here are also using it.
As creating the json file can be long, I usually do a non-parallel build
(had issues with parallel jobs) when I'm not coding.

There is a clang-format config file in contrib that one can symlink in
the root dir as .clang-format. I hope/guess tools like CLion can pick it
and use it? At least this can be used to indent using clang-format tools
and derivatives (like git-clang-format). In the GCC Rust project, we are
using it (but judging by Jakub's last review for Philip's patch, the
config is maybe not exhaustive, or our setup is not correct).
