The tool is designed to check patches, not files. Such whitespace cleanups pollute the kernel history, i.e. such that git blame returns false positives. The purpose of --file is: - Checking out-of-tree files (like existing drivers to be imported) - One notable exception is drivers/staging/, you can run it on these files. -- Thanks, //richard -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
