This sounds like a living hell if you use git diff a lot to compare for small changes that might introduce a bug? which is what happens at work all the time since our unit test and CI are a joke. Not dumping on your project but the idea of that much of a change up of the code scares the dickens out of me.

Once the code is initially migrated (which should not break it), the diffs won't be large, since the order should be consistent.
One thing worth mentioning is that the `git blame` ignore file trick doesn't work as well with ssort as it does with black because the changes ssort makes tend to be much less local.
Use it at the editor level instead of in CI and I can't see how it can cause you any problems at all. I could easily be missing something though?
