Re: [frogs] Patch for Issue #830

[ Thread Index | Date Index | More lilynet.net/frogs Archives ]


There's some git command that removes whitespaces at the end of
lines.  There's also a tracker issue to find a command (ideally
with python, maybe?) that removes those whitespaces.  Either it's
a hard issue to solve, or nobody noticed it in the tracker.

Cheers,
