2007-05-02cleanpatch: a script to clean up stealth whitespace added by a patchH. Peter Anvin
This script is a companion to the "cleanfile" script. This cleans up a patch in unified diff format *before* it is applied. Note that the empty lines at the end of file detection *requires* that the diff was taken with at least one line of context around each hunk, or bad things will happen. This script cleans up various classes of stealth whitespace. In particular, it cleans up: - Whitespace (spaces or tabs)before newline; - DOS line endings (CR before LF); - Space before tab (spaces are deleted or converted to tabs); - Empty lines at end of file.
