You should not commit whitespace fixes to lines not otherwise modified by 
a patch, except in a separate commit that *only* has whitespace or other 
formatting fixes, so that "svn blame" results are more meaningful.  That 
is: commit whitespace fixes (assuming they are genuinely fixes rather than 
making things worse) *separately* in a commit whose commit message makes 
clear it is just whitespace fixes.
