Subject: Whitepace parameter for git restore
Date: Wed, 14 Dec 2022 14:36:11 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAGWBhH7ZiU_tJGj_UAB29v9Eq6C2Q-1_0YxLLN16LaEOcuV1Xw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Is there a way to pass apply.whitespace when using "git restore" like
how it is done for git apply? I believe this might be a bug/missing
feature.
I have apply.whitespace=fix in my user git config. This usually works
fine but I was working on a patch for a project today which is using
tabs and spaces which messed up the commit. In order to avoid
cluttering the diff with whitespace changes I tried to remove the
whitespace changes with "git restore -p
src/the-file-with-tabs-and-spaces.sh" but it seems that this causes
git to fix the whitespaces again due to the configuration. I worked
around this by setting a repo local config with
"apply.whitespace=warn" but I wonder if there shouldn't be an
--whitespace flag for git restore like it is for git apply. Is this a
bug?

Best regards,
Niklas
