What did you do?
Using x/tools/goimports does not have a consistent way of grouping imports when newlines are there. For instance, both of these files will not be changed by goimports:
// A.go
package main
import (
"os"
"strings"
)
func main() {
_ := os.Args
_ := strings.NewReplacer
}
// B.go
package main
import (
"os"
"strings"
)
func main() {
_ := os.Args
_ := strings.NewReplacer
}
What did you expect to see?
I would expect the second one to be formatted like the first one.
