**[Mike Laurie](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=mikelaurie)** commented A tab can be a legal value in a manifest, but when the XML's formatting was copied directly into the manifest, we ended up with a newline followed directly by a tab, which is not valid for a manifest. My suggestion to condense all whitespace was made purely because a manifest is bound to be laid out differently from an XML description (which is likely to have tab-based indents), so why not condense tabs while we're necessarily going about removing newlines? Not strictly necessary though - you're right, as long as continuation lines always start with a space (which they weren't) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
