Re: [Subclipse-users] Ignore Whitespace During *Merge*

I can't claim to know squat about JavaHL, but is this the option?
https://subversion.apache.org/docs/javahl/latest/org/apache/subversion/javahl/SVNUtil.DiffOptions.IgnoreSpace.html#change

If there's an upstream enhancement to be filed (to the Subversion/JavaHL
team), I don't mind doing it, but I'll need to be able to write an
intelligible ticket.

Thanks,
Jamie
