Please don't mix visible changes with non-visible changes in the same commit. -- justin

Can you give me a hint how to do so? I can't influence the invisible changes me editor does. Is there any way to exclude them from a cvs commit? Or will I have to change my editor? I would be glad to get some help.

If you're using regular CVS, try checking in with "--ignore-space-change", or "-b"; if you find an option that helps, you should be able to put it into ~/.cvsrc, as in "diff -b".

        If you're using a CVS checkin funciton built into your
editor, I'd file a bug against tab mangling -- what editor are you
using?

        diff.1 says:

       -b     Ignore changes in amount of white space.

       --ignore-all-space
              Ignore white space when comparing lines.

       --ignore-space-change
              Ignore changes in amount of white space.

       -w     Ignore white space when comparing lines.
