Even after I make the changes and save the new settings.xml, the same whitespace changes show up on when I later reopen that wizard.

I also checked I had the same issue whether the line endings were LF or CR/LF. This is really an issue with *leading* white spaces.

> 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.
