Ever since 2.17.0, when saving a patch (using add --patch but probably other ways as well), if the whitespace is removed from the initial column, the patch doesn't apply.

Full walkthrough (including comparison with 2.16.3) in the video attached to this link:

This sounds a bit like the issue discussed in this thread a
few weeks ago:

https://public-inbox.org/git/e8aedc6b-5b3e-cfb2-be9d-971bfd9adde8@talktalk.net/

But I didn't download or watch the video, so I'm not positive.

Todd, it looks like that may very well be the same issue.  And it looks like it's planning on being fixed in the next release?  Would that be 2.17.1 since it's a regression?
