There is nothing more annoying than getting a PR that fixed a one line bug, along with someone's editor's autoindent rewriting the entire file the fix was in, because it wanted to change indents.

It's certainly not efficient reading a patch with a +1000/-999 diffstat, hunting for a one line fix. I've had this repeatedly and it's painful. Anyone that noted the existing style wouldn't have let this happen.
