Re: Trailing whitespace in FreeBSD

[Jordan K Hubbard]

Needed? Probably not. But look at it this way - he's learned a lot more about FreeBSD project history and why this one's such an exposed nerve in the process than he probably ever would have otherwise. Did he want to learn this? Well, we'll just have to let him answer that for himself. :)

The guy really does want to know if this would be helpful or not..

Hey! I've got a GREAT idea!  I whipped up this nifty perl script and
I can run it over the src tree to delete all the trailing whitespace!
And even better, I can collapse tabs at the beginning of lines! What
a great deal! That should be good for a few hundred commits!

Hello

I have noticed that that several FreeBSD files (.c, .h and so on) have
trailing whitespace (spaces/tabs after last charecter on a line).

Should I send patches for this, or is it not important to "fix"?

A random example is stdbool.h v. 1.6 on line 30 which has a trailing
tab.
