[PATCH v1 0/3] Introduce config variable "diff.primer"

The next three patches introduce a way to specify diff options git always obeys. Then use the new feature to enhance git-gui with white space ignore settings. The fastest way to see this patch in action is: apply all three patches, fire up git-gui, modify a file, then right-click on the diff panel and look for the new "White Space" sub-menu.

Future work: Extend the gitattributes mechanism so it supports all [diff] config variables, including e.g. diff.mnemonicprefix and diff.primer.

Keith Cascio (3):
 Introduce config variable "diff.primer"
 Test functionality of new config variable "diff.primer"
 git-gui hooks for new config variable "diff.primer"
