There's this really nice tool called pre-commit, which can be used to run little checking programs on your code at the moment you hit git commit. For example, you can configure it to run a little script that would ensure all indentation is consistent.
This can be setup up to run locally or via github on each PR. I use it all the time in python projects, but I need to look and see if similar formatting tools exist for fortran code.
It's likely that the first time we add such a tool it will make a significant number of changes to the existing code, as it tidies up all the inconsistent formatting it finds. But none of these changes would make any functional difference.
