Description Sébastien Wilmet 2014-09-12 19:34:28 UTC 
Git doesn't like trailing spaces.

An easy solution is to remove all trailing spaces of the buffer when saving a file. But a better solution is to remove trailing spaces only for modified lines (and new lines).

A GtkTextRegion can be used to keep track of the modified lines.

This behavior would be available with a boolean property in GtkSourceFileSaver.

Move the bug to Gtef.
Comment 2 Sébastien Wilmet 2017-04-25 10:07:25 UTC 
GtkTextRegion -> GtkSourceRegion.
GtkSourceFileSaver -> GtefFileSaver.
