I don't understand the question.

A blanket indentation change like running perltidy for the first time creates a "history sheer", all lines will have been changed at that revision. So when you run "svn blame" you don't see the last significant change, you see when perltidy was run. It's annoying and means you have to do more manually
history searches.

Ah, I see. I always forget about that.

Fortunately, svn blame can take diff arguments!  I did not know this.
svn blame -x '-buw' will work to ignore whitspace.

Oh, neat trick!

It always prompts me, but doesn't seem to make any difference.

Yeah, it doesn't do anything for me either. Probably need to frobnitz the
right variables.

Right.

Um, can we have --indent-columns 4 please? And no tabs? Also,
---maximum-line-length=78 is probably the minimum it should be, not 72.

Agreed, this is all for naught if it's not set at some semi-standard style.

Yep. See _Perl Best Practices_, p 19.

Best,

David
