Junio, on 3/25/07 you said: I know Linus does not like applying patches with whitespace fuzziness, but I personally think a merge that ignores whitespace changes would be a useful thing to have, without having to call an external specialized merge backend. In other words, I do not think it is so special a thing to want to, but it is rather an unfortunate norm. I am not opposed to give git-merge-recursive a command line option to tell it to merge ignoring the whitespace-only changes, when it does the 3-way file-level merge internally. Whatever came of this? I tried giving git merge a --ignore-whitespace argument and the error message that followed show no equivalent argument. It would sure come in handy right now. Is there some other way to do it that I didn't find searching the mailing list? Thanks.
