When I do say 'git diff', and I have added a line with a trailing whitespace, i get a red square box highlighting the added whitespace. (on the '+' diff line) What I want, is the reverse - so when I delete an existing whitespace, I get something similar, for example a blue box highlighting the deleted whitespace (on the '-' diff line) Currently the only notificate I get is identical '-' and '+' diff lines, but no indication of the whitespace deleted I know I can do this with graphical tools, but ideally would like some way using the standard console git diff - if this is possible. I have Âthe following in my .gitconfig --- [color "diff"] whitespace = red reverse [core] Âwhitespace=-indent-with-non-tab,trailing-space,cr-at-eol,tab-in-indent --- Thanks, -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
