Anyone want to go first in formulating a policy?
The two obvious possibilities that are easily verifyable for a computer are:
A) No trailing whitespace is allowed anywhere. Strip the Sage library.
Patches that introduce trailing white space are disallowed.
B) We do not care about trailing whitespace. Patch hunks that ONLY
change trailing whitespace are disallowed.
How about C) which is between A) and B), and has been the current
unofficial policy.
C) We care about trailing whitespace. No new patches should introduce
trailing whitespace in modified lines. But patch hunks that ONLY change
trailing whitespace are disallowed. It is of course encouraged to get
rid of trailing whitespace in the code surrounding the lines your patch
touches.
