Hi all,

Please have a look at the output below.

:
Failed to merge in the changes.
Patch failed at 0008 Use static WAR for SWF files and assets.

Note the trailing whitespace warnings. How do I find out which file(s)
generated these warnings? Would it be possible to add the file name
causing the warnings to be output? By default? (Using --verbose
doesn't seem to make any difference where the whitespace warnings are
concerned.)

Furthermore, why didn't I get these or similar warnings when I
committed/pushed that particular commit ("Use static WAR for SWF files
and assets.")? I did just find "[core] whitespace = trailing-space"
which I will add to my .gitconfig, I suppose. So I guess what I really
mean to ask is, why do rebase (and merge?) behave differently from
commit?

Cheers,
Hilco
