Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-11923:
-------------------------------------------
Oh, and to answer this question:
bq. does CHANGED_FILES get used in some way that we can't just alter how it
finds the list?
No. It really should be a list of all the files that are touched. The tricky
part is that it is attempting to interpret the patch file and there are all
sorts of ways that could be built. It all depends upon which diff command
lines were used. :(

> The whitespace plugin for test-patch only examines new files. So when a patch
> comes in with trailing whitespace on new files it doesn't flag things as a
> problem.
