Is there a standard Google Go coding conventions document somewhere that sets whether tabs or spaces are preferred for indentation in Go source code? If not, what is the (statistically) more popular option?
The official recommendation is formatting your code with
go fmt
or using the gofmt command directly
gofmt -w .
You can read more about it here on the golang.org blog, or from the Effective go document:
Indentation
We use tabs for indentation and gofmt emits them by default. Use spaces only if you must.
