Mave Repositories : TextMerge Preview always shows whitespace changes on Windows -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBIDE-13035 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-13035 Project: Tools (JBoss Tools) Issue Type: Bug Components: maven, upstream Affects Versions: 4.0.0.Beta2 Environment: Windows 7 pro 64 Reporter: Fred Bricon Assignee: Alexey Kazakov Fix For: 4.0.x Attachments: Text_Merge_preview_show_whitespace_changes.png On Windows, the Maven Repositories wizard's preview pane always shows whitespace changes, diminishing the preview usefulness. !Text_Merge_preview_show_whitespace_changes.png! 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, they really are identical. I don't have any issue on linux.
