diff.wsErrorHighlight::
A comma separated list of `old`, `new`, `context`, that
specifies how whitespace errors on lines are highlighted
with `color.diff.whitespace`. Can be overridden by the
command line option `--ws-error-highlight=<kind>`
Highlight whitespace errors in the `context`, `old` or `new`
lines of the diff. Multiple values are separated by comma,
`none` resets previous values, `default` reset the list to
`new` and `all` is a shorthand for `old,new,context`. The
whitespace errors are colored with `color.diff.whitespace`.
The command line option `--ws-error-highlight=<kind>`
overrides this setting.

is a comma separated list of `old`, `new`, `context`. When
this option is not given, only whitespace errors in `new`
lines are highlighted. E.g. `--ws-error-highlight=new,old`
highlights whitespace errors on both deleted and added lines.
`all` can be used as a short-hand for `old,new,context`.
The `diff.wsErrorHighlight` configuration variable can be
used to specify the default behaviour.

this option is not given, and the configuration variable
`diff.wsErrorHighlight` is not set, only whitespace errors in
