Junio C Hamano a6080a0a44 War on whitespace
This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have
crept in to our source files over time.  There are a few files that need
to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors).  The results
still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

git-get-tar-commit-id(1)
========================
NAME
----
git-get-tar-commit-id - Extract commit ID from an archive created using git-tar-tree
SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-get-tar-commit-id' < <tarfile>
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Acts as a filter, extracting the commit ID stored in archives created by
git-tar-tree. It reads only the first 1024 bytes of input, thus its
runtime is not influenced by the size of <tarfile> very much.
If no commit ID is found, git-get-tar-commit-id quietly exists with a
return code of 1. This can happen if <tarfile> had not been created
using git-tar-tree or if the first parameter of git-tar-tree had been
a tree ID instead of a commit ID or tag.
