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-pack-redundant(1)
=====================
NAME
----
git-pack-redundant - Find redundant pack files
SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-pack-redundant' [ --verbose ] [ --alt-odb ] < --all | .pack filename ... >
DESCRIPTION
-----------
This program computes which packs in your repository
are redundant. The output is suitable for piping to
'xargs rm' if you are in the root of the repository.
git-pack-redundant accepts a list of objects on standard input. Any objects
given will be ignored when checking which packs are required. This makes the
following command useful when wanting to remove packs which contain unreachable
objects.
git-fsck --full --unreachable | cut -d ' ' -f3 | \
git-pack-redundant --all | xargs rm
OPTIONS
-------
--all::
Processes all packs. Any filenames on the command line are ignored.
--alt-odb::
Don't require objects present in packs from alternate object
directories to be present in local packs.
--verbose::
Outputs some statistics to stderr. Has a small performance penalty.
