Ran into this issue where contributors editors were reformatting the whole file they touched based on the newly created code formatting config file. Some editors would pick it up and automatically reformat on save so a commit with 3 actual lines changed looked like 90% of the file had changed in the diff. So we went with the nuclear option and did one massive PR that reformatted the whole codebase.
