- neves 5y agohe, he, me too. It really transformed the way I program. No more mental cycles devoted to best formatting.

Save the file and accept the result. Sometimes it tries to break long lists that better stay horizontal or matrices into long lists, in which case, wrapping the block with `# fmt: on/off` saves the day.
- slaymaker1907 5y agoI don't think the formatters need to be so opinionated. The problem with older tools is that they don't have the capability to fix things even when it is easy to fix in an automated way. For example, I don't really care about fixing line length issues, but I really don't want to sort my imports by hand or fix the line breaks with my blocks.
