[PATCH v3 12/12] attr: enable incomplete-line whitespace error for this project

From
Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Date
Nov 11, 2025, 00:04 UTC
Message-ID
<20251111000451.2243195-13-gitster@pobox.com>
In-Reply-To
<20251111000451.2243195-1-gitster@pobox.com>

Now "git diff --check" and "git apply --whitespace=warn/fix" learned incomplete line is a whitespace error, enable them for this project to prevent patches to add new incomplete lines to our sources.
