Btw, I'd be happy with a commit hook that forces you to fix
whitespace in the area you patch (basically just make sure there
is no trailing whitespace in ^[+ ] lines of a unified diff
(maybe even only in ^+ lines to not cause continuous rejects
if you fixup the ^ lines in your patch and drag in more context).
Then, I might suggest using GNU indent as the commit hook.
Of course, not every one has it (notably those working on non-linux systems), but for those who have it, requiring that
every C file inside GCC has been automatically indented with GNU indent could help. It certainly could have helped me
for most of the patches I have submitted (but I am too afraid of running indent on a GCC file by myself; it probably
would change lot of things outside of my patch).
But I confess that I don't know much about svn commit machinery.
Regards.
