What's up with that tab size? Is that normal for go code?

Go uses tabs instead of spaces and Github displays them as 8 character width. It can get annoying and there are several extensions to change this behavior. Tab Size on Github [1] is the one I personally use.

Yes, it's Go code formatting. Spaces are incorrect.
