I just tried swift-format for the first time. I am quite pleased with the results, but there are two cases that I wish I could disable to preserve existing spacing:
Multiple spaces following commas between items in a list. For example I have a vertical list of (X,Y,Z) vectors and I have added spacing to make the columns line up. More generally, this can be helpful for visually verifying grid-like patterns in code.
Lack of spaces in between operators, e.g. `a*x + b`.
I realize that the project must strike a balance between convention and configuration. Regardless of how the developers feel about these style choices, I hope that you will consider this request on the basis of reducing barriers to entry. If it weren't for these points, then adding swift-format to my workflow would be an obvious improvement. As it is, I feel like I am making a compromise. In any case, thank you for your great work!
