I agree that the rules are sometimes tedious to follow (and rebasing patches just to fix some formatting issues isn't exactly fun). I don't use git to commit either. My "secret" is to enable highlighting of trailing whitespaces in vim ("let c_space_errors=1"), but that's of no use to you I guess.
Thanks. I just downloaded and installed an Emacs equivalent called redspace. It does the same thing. Unfortunately, it also has the effect of highlighting in red the one blank inserted by diff at the beginning of empty lines. I guess the way to deal with that is to avoid inserting blank spaces into changes to begin with rather than trying to remove them from the final patch.
But there's this contrib/check_GNU_style.sh script that you can use, which points out e.g. 8 spaces -> tabs. Before posting a patch, I always do 'check_GNU_style z.patch'. That might help.
I use the script on bigger patches. I just haven't trained myself to use it consistently, for all of them, and each time I post a new revision of a patch for review. (The script also complains about tests where following the convention isn't always possible -- e.g., lines over 80 characters are unavoidable due to dg-error directives, and periods can't be preceded by a space when they are part of regular expressions in dg- directives..) But what I'm hoping to find is a fully automated way of dealing with this so I don't have to think about and waste other people's time pointing it out. (Ideally, it would be automated for everyone so that none of us have to worry about it. Perhaps a post-commit hook could be put in place for this.)

This change is unrelated.
Yes, sorry about that. It's yet another weakness in my workflow (using the same local copy to test multiple unrelated changes). A new patch is attached. Martin
