Thanks for updating the glossary. I think it's ok to don't translate "diffstat"
for now. Acutally, we did the same for "dirstat".

Yeah, "Leerzeichen" is only a part of what whitespace could mean. We
don't need to use
one word for translation. If we can reduce the meaning to ASCII space
characters and tabs,
we could translate it as "Leerzeichen oder Tabulatoren"!? Maybe this
is also just one half
of the truth.
