Note that builder.sourceware.org can help with that. If you push a
patch to a try builder then the gdb-try-fedora-x86_64 builder will run
python black over it (and fail and put a format diff in the output log
if it doesn't match):
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=builder.git;a=blob;f=builder/master.cfg;hb=HEAD#l2735

I am hoping we can automate that with patchwork so that patches will
get a fail marker if they don't pass the format checker.

Cheers,
