I don't think you can avoid it entirely, but git diff has switches to
ignore whitespace changes. (--ignore-all-space). I am not sure how
well it works.

I didn't know of the switch, so ended up going through the diff file
hand-editing the whitespace-only changes out. Which was only partially
sucessful.

I guess you could then revert and re-patch to get your reap changes,
but lose the whitespace changes.
