Ignore whitespace option in "Changeset Detail" page

XMLWordPrintable

      Currently, the "Changeset Detail" page are configured to ignore all whitespaces by default.

      For example, having a file with the following content:

      void foo()
      { 
      // this comment will have some insignificant WS prepended 
      printf("hello, world!\n"); // this will have some significant space added 
      }
      

      And later added with whitespace on line 3 and line 4:

      void foo()
      { 
        // this comment will have some insignificant WS prepended 
      printf("  hello, world!\n"); // this will have some significant space added 
      }
      

      Produces a result as shown in screenshot, changeset_detail.jpg, which is similar to screenshot, diff_ignore_whitespace.JPG(captured in the "Diff" page and ignored all whitespaces option is enabled). A non-ignore whitespace option in the "Diff" page is attached too, diff_without_ignore_whitespace.JPG.

      It would be nice to include a similar whitespace configuration option in the "Changeset Detail" page too.
