seems to split imports into three groups in some edge cases

[mmlb]

This is pretty strange but I noticed that gofumpt was creating unexpected groups in import (...) blocks. I've tracked it down to gofumpt doing the wrong thing when path/filepath is imported (maybe others?). Here's what I'm seeing.

I've seen the following on both v0.3.1 and latest master commit:

[16:42:45]-[~/cloned/mvdan.cc/gofumpt]─[manny@zennix]> git status -s
?? gofumpt_does_not_like_path_filepath

[16:42:47]-[~/cloned/mvdan.cc/gofumpt]─[manny@zennix]> git rev-parse HEAD
b5619f8b06cad833eac1c454a48024599d8f5192

With path/filepath in the imports:

[16:47:18]-[~/cloned/mvdan.cc/gofumpt]─[manny@zennix]> cat gofumpt_does_not_like_path_filepath
package tests_test

import (
    "path/filepath"
    "time"

    "k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/types"
    "sigs.k8s.io/yaml"
)

and now without path/filepath:

git bisect says b7afc715b566b948526ad840fc20d53b642f6b6c is the first bad commit. This is the commit where stdlib is separated from other imports. Before this commit all the commits are kept grouped together, but at least handled right.

Still with path/filepath in the imports:

path/filepath -> path same deal, path -> encoding/json does the right thing...

Not sure I understand; gofumpt is meant to separate imports into groups, where the first group is the standard library. Isn't that what you are seeing?

[mmlb]

@mvdan not quite. gofumpt is creating 3 import groups instead of just 2. I was expecting

 import (
    "path"
    "time"
+
    "github.com/tinkerbell/tink/pkg/apis/core/v1alpha1"
    "k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/types"
    "sigs.k8s.io/yaml"
 )

And it does do that if I don't have path in the import block. FYI I don't think the issue is with path itself for all cases, its just what seems to trigger this unexpected behavior in my imports. Here's another buggy example not tied to path:

Only 2 groups as expected:

[09:49:20]-[~/cloned/mvdan.cc/gofumpt]─[manny@zennix]> cat gofumpt_does_not_like_path_filepath
package main

import (
    "encoding/json"
    "time"
    "github.com/tinkerbell/tink/pkg/apis/core/v1alpha1"
    "k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/types"
    "k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/types2"
    "sigs.k8s.io/yaml"
)

But now I add package zz.zz/foo/bar and now we get 3 groups, unexpectedly:

Thank you - that is very weird, and I can reproduce.

[mvdan]

It seems like what happens here is that our logic to reorder imports doesn't quite work in some edge cases - which is understandable given that we have to fix up the position offsets, and doing that while keeping empty lines and comments where they should be is... surprisingly hard. Properly fixing this might require a bit of a rethink.

[mmlb]

yeah when I went trawling for an easy fix I noticed the same and thus brought the issue up instead of opening a PR :)
