Because it was not mentioned in the commit message, I only realized after writing a patch that rebase -i --whitespace already errors out.

Would be nice to have important information like that (I mean that it is already handled, not that I was stupid enough to write the patch) in the commit message, don't you agree?

Ciao, Dscho
