Yes and no.  Various editors can do this.

Frescobaldi has a script to do it (see the issue), but it's not
clear if it can be run independently or not.  As implied by that
issue and
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1432
, it would be great if we had such a script, and I'd hope to ship
it as part of lilypond.  And, of course, run it on all our files
in git and all the docs.
