This is a proposal for the next version Go. Currently gofmt formats struct fields to make the field name and type aligned. However this may cause extra changes in a commit diff when one field is added or removed.
What I propose is to use a tab between the field name and type. It is responsibility of the editor or html formatter to align the code. To make the transition not disruptive I propose that: - gofmt is updated to recognize the tab in a struct field and left it unchanged - a new tool or go fix is made available to reformat existing code Is this reasonable?
