For consistency, make the two tools report whitespace errors in the same way (the output of "diff --check" has been tweaked to match that of "git apply"). Note that although the textual content is basically the same only "git diff --check" provides a colorized version of the problematic lines; making "git apply" do colorization will require more extensive changes (figuring out the diff colorization preferences of the user) and so that will be a subject for another commit.
