My vote would be to add it in the commit hook. There should be no
disadvantages that way and
formatting will get better over time. Heavily worked sections of code will
come up to date quickly while
less busy sections of code (in terms of changes) may never come up to
speed. At least things
won't get any worse over time.

To me, this seems like a severe drawback, so I would vote against
astyle (if you are interested in my opinion...).
Actually, I do not see any essential benefit from gettig rid of
spurious whitespace, with the one possible exception of TAB
characters, because those tend to expand to a different number of
spaces in some editors, in particular editors on bizarre operating
systems like MS Windows.
