I would expect havefmt would read the indenting using the Python indenting rules (which cover situations where, for example, one line is 10 spaces and the next line is 5 spaces and 1 tab). It would then write it out to be uniformly 2 space indents (if you are a Google employee) or 4 space indents otherwise. Yes, go has the benefit that you can do pathologically bad formatting and let gofmt fix it all. I love to type my Go code and rarely press RETURN, knowing gofmt will fix it. However, I also miss the Python indenting system.
