[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-13035) Mave Repositories : TextMerge Preview always shows whitespace changes on Windows
[
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-13035?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugi...
]
Fred Bricon updated JBIDE-13035:
--------------------------------
Workaround Description:
* Open Window > Preferences > General > Compare/Patch
* Check "Ignore white space"
Workaround: Workaround Exists
If possible, we could add an "Ignore white space" checkbox on the wizard, so
that setting would be locally applied, instead of having to go to the workspace
preferences and set it.
Dunno if it's doable though.

Environment: Windows 7 pro 64
Reporter: Fred Bricon

On Windows, the Maven Repositories wizard's preview pane always shows whitespace
changes, diminishing the preview usefulness.

I tried to mess with the code a bit but to no avail. I suspected some line endings
weirdness, but it seems to be really a problem with white spaces. I tried to compare the
contents of my original settings.xml, to the contents in both panels, using an hex editor,
there really are identical.
I don't have any issue on linux.
