Comment 1:

Just about filed a dup and found this bug.
I'm always reminded of this quirk when I edit this file:
http://camlistore.org/code/?p=camlistore.git;a=blob;f=lib/go/camli/blobserver/interface.go;hb=HEAD
(the Stat and EnumerateBlobs methods)

Comment 2:

I avoid gofmt because of this. :P
Ideally it should align with parentheses:
func ManageStatus(in <-chan *Status, req <-chan Request,
                  stat chan<- *TargetInfo, 
                  TargetHistorySize int) {
}
...or start args indented in the next line and keep aligned that way on next lines:
func ManageStatus(
    in <-chan *Status, req <-chan Request,
    stat chan<- *TargetInfo, TargetHistorySize int) {
}
But that just my opinion! :)

Comment 3 by andychilton:

In a similar vein to what Rodrigo suggested, I'd go one step further. If the line has to
be broken due to the length, make sure _all_ parameters are on a separate line. I find
this easier to read (and of course this is just a suggestion and my opinion):
func ManageStatus(
    in <-chan *Status,
    req <-chan Request,
    stat chan<- *TargetInfo, 
    TargetHistorySize int
) {
    ...etc...
}

Comment 4:

@andy: your example would need to be:
func ManageStatus(
    in <-chan *Status,
    req <-chan Request,
    stat chan<- *TargetInfo, 
    TargetHistorySize int) {
    ...etc...
}
Because your version won't compile, afaik.
