Certainly not the formatting you have done manually, because the auto-formatter will likely throw it away. You likely do that, because you care about the consistency of the formatting, not for the formatting already present in the file.

Personally, I don't like auto-formatters. It's like having someone else cleaning up your room. I have put every byte of whitespace where it belongs, I certainly don't want someone else to mess that up.
