Junio,
This is on top of my previous cleanup [PATCH Rev 3].
Thanks.
BTW, In that previous patch of mine, this line:
- and %D for the absolute path of the named repository.
has trailing blanks in my patch that must be removed in order
to apply it correctly to the HEAD of git. The _previous_ patch
clearly was (correctly) applied with --whitepace=strip!
Yes, I usually use --whitespace=strip. The only time I
deliberately had to turn it off was to apply patches to diff
output test vectors.
Hopefully the recent addition to "diff --color" output to highlight
these potential whitespace errors would help spot them before
making commits.
