You have no other choice.
Polly verifies its source formatting as part of check-polly, so every
commit that violates formatting will get an email from the buildbot.It
also triggers when clang-format itself changes. Did you find those
helpful?

The parts of Polly that are left out are its external dependencies,
i.e. isl and imath. I wonder why these are even included in the
clang-format status, we certainly do not want to modify these source
files.

For clang, I have to exclude the test folder because clang-format
messes with clang -verify tests that require comments on specific
lines and tests that check correct behavior of clang on whitespace.
