The Go team has been able to make incompatible language & library changes by providing a tool that updates existing programs. Since Go's pretty-printer fully defines the appearance of source code (indenting, line wrapping, etc.), the updater can't mess up such things (and there are no debates about them).
They stopped doing that after Go 1.0, and most of the changes that we've made are not the kinds of things that could be updated with a gofix-like tool anyhow. Go made most of its radical changes while it was still a secret project at Google.
