## Comma at the End of the Line

Commas between `SELECT` elements should always be at the end of the line.
For example:

**Good**

```sql
SELECT
client_id,
os_name,
submission_date
FROM
main_summary
WHERE
submission_date > '20180101'
LIMIT
10
```

**Bad**

```sql
SELECT
client_id
, os_name
, submission_date
FROM
main_summary
WHERE
submission_date > '20180101'
LIMIT
10
```
