Currently, gofmt will change:

func hi(){fmt.Println("Hi.")}
func bye(){
fmt.Println("Bye.")}

into:

func hi() { fmt.Println("Hi.") }
func bye() {
    fmt.Println("Bye.")
}

The tool could apply this to if-statements as well.

One line if-statements are controversial, and so my code reviewer and I believe that we should leave that choice to the user rather than requiring multi-line if-statements. We already leave this choice to the user in the case of function definitions, and so I was hoping that this wouldn't be much more work than that.

Our motivation for one line if-statements is that something like:

if choice == "" { choice = default }

is less distracting and arguably more readable than:

if choice == "" {
  choice = default
}

Thank you!
