* 'jc/maint-1.6.0-blank-at-eof' (early part):
diff --whitespace: fix blank lines at end
core.whitespace: split trailing-space into blank-at-{eol,eof}
diff --color: color blank-at-eof
diff --whitespace=warn/error: fix blank-at-eof check
diff --whitespace=warn/error: obey blank-at-eof
diff.c: the builtin_diff() deals with only two-file comparison
apply --whitespace: warn blank but not necessarily empty lines at EOF
apply --whitespace=warn/error: diagnose blank at EOF
apply.c: split check_whitespace() into two
apply --whitespace=fix: detect new blank lines at eof correctly
apply --whitespace=fix: fix handling of blank lines at the eof
The whitespace error of adding blank lines at the end of file should
trigger if you added a non-empty line at the end, if the contents of the
line is full of whitespaces.

"git apply" strips new blank lines at EOF under --whitespace=fix option,
but neigher --whitespace=warn nor --whitespace=error paid any attention to
these errors.
Introduce a new whitespace error class, blank-at-eof, to make the
whitespace error handling more consistent.
The patch adds a new "linenr" field to the struct fragment in order to
record which line the hunk started in the input file, but this is needed
solely for reporting purposes. The detection of this class of whitespace
errors cannot be done while parsing a patch like we do for all the other
classes of whitespace errors. It instead has to wait until we find where
to apply the hunk, but at that point, we do not have an access to the
original line number in the input file anymore, hence the new field.
Depending on your point of view, this may be a bugfix that makes warn and
error in line with fix. Or you could call it a new feature. The line
between them is somewhat fuzzy in this case.
Strictly speaking, triggering more errors than before is a change in
behaviour that is not backward compatible, even though the reason for the
change is because the code was not checking for an error that it should
have. People who do not want added blank lines at EOF to trigger an error
can disable the new error class.

The command tries to strip blank lines at the end of the file added by a
patch. It is done by first detecting if a hunk in patch has additional
blank lines at the end of itself, and if so checking if such a hunk
applies at the end of file. This patch addresses a bug in the logic to
implement the former (the previous one addressed a bug in the latter).
If the original ends with blank lines, often the patch hunk ends like
this:
@@ -l,5 +m,7 @@$
_context$
_context$
-deleted$
+$
+$
+$
_$
_$
where _ stands for SP and $ shows a end-of-line. This example patch adds
three trailing blank lines, but the code fails to notice it, because it
only pays attention to added blank lines at the very end of the hunk. In
this example, the three added blank lines do not appear textually at the
end in the patch, even though you can see that they are indeed added at
the end, if you rearrange the diff like this:
@@ -l,5 +m,7 @@$
_context$
_context$
-deleted$
_$
_$
+$
+$
+$
The fix is not to reset the number of (candidate) added blank lines at the
end when the loop sees a context line that is empty.

b94f2ed (builtin-apply.c: make it more line oriented, 2008-01-26) broke
the logic used to detect if a hunk adds blank lines at the end of the
file. With the new code after that commit:
- img holds the contents of the file that the hunk is being applied to;
- preimage has the lines the hunk expects to be in img; and
- postimage has the lines the hunk wants to update the part in img that
corresponds to preimage with.
and we need to compare if the last line of preimage (not postimage)
matches the last line of img to see if the hunk applies at the end of the
file.

735c674 (Trailing whitespace and no newline fix, 2009-07-22) completely
broke --whitespace=fix, causing it to lose all the empty lines in a patch.

If a patch adds a new line to the end of a file and this line ends with
one trailing whitespace character and has no newline, then
'--whitespace=fix' currently does not remove that trailing whitespace.
This patch fixes this by removing the check for trailing whitespace at
the end of the line at a hardcoded offset which does not take the
eventual absence of newline into account.

The `core.whitespace` configuration variable allows you to define what
`diff` and `apply` should consider whitespace errors for all paths in
the project (See gitlink:git-config[1]). This attribute gives you finer
control per path.
For example, if you have these in the .gitattributes:
frotz whitespace
nitfol -whitespace
xyzzy whitespace=-trailing
all types of whitespace problems known to git are noticed in path 'frotz'
(i.e. diff shows them in diff.whitespace color, and apply warns about
them), no whitespace problem is noticed in path 'nitfol', and the
default types of whitespace problems except "trailing whitespace" are
noticed for path 'xyzzy'. A project with mixed Python and C might want
to have:
*.c whitespace
*.py whitespace=-indent-with-non-tab
in its toplevel .gitattributes file.

We earlier introduced core.whitespace to allow users to tweak the
definition of what the "whitespace errors" are, for the purpose of diff
output highlighting. This teaches the same to git-apply, so that the
command can both detect (when --whitespace=warn option is given) and fix
(when --whitespace=fix option is given) as configured.
