Hi, Occasionally, we have source files which contain - apart from the changes made by the developer - a lot of whitespace changes introduced by reformatting the code. (Mainly tabs<->spaces conversions and trailing whitespace.)
While Subversion and TortoiseSVN offer the possibility to ignore those white space changes when diffing the files, a commit still includes those changes, and thus the diff in the SVN history is cluttered, which causes problems for reviewers. I found no possibility to selectively revert those lines to their original state via SVN but manually reverting all those lines in a diff viewer. Is there any tool which reverts all those whitespace-only changes, keeping only the "real" changes in the file? Bonus points for a tool which keeps real indentation changes, and only discards tab<->space conversions which do not change the indentation level. :-) (I know that a project-wide style guide and rejecting commits which do not conform to that style guide are the long term solution to that problem, and we're aiming towards that.)
