Whitespace conflicts during merges

I often find myself cleaning whitespace in code, then using TSVN to
update my working copy and having conflicts on the lines I've modified
whitespace (because someone else modified whitespace too).

I know that I can set the diff viewer (and merge program) to ignore
whitespace differences, but is there any way to tell TSVN to ignore
whitespace differences when performing merges during a working copy update?

In the command-line tools, there is a '--diff3-cmd' option to specify a
merge command. I suspect I could use that to provide a merge command
that ignored whitespace differences during the merge. I was hoping TSVN
could provide something similar.
