Re: Subversion diff whitespace problem

Hi Matthew,

This isn't a svn issue per-se, this is an NetBeans IDE issue with their diffing.

I would ask on the NetBeans mailing list.

Also, most people here ask questions on general svn usage and design or the
command line client. IDE integration questions are asked on the IDE specific
mailing list.

Regards,
Blair
