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-status(1)
=============
NAME
----
git-status - Show the working tree status
SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-status' <options>...
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Examines paths in the working tree that has changes unrecorded
to the index file, and changes between the index file and the
current HEAD commit. The former paths are what you _could_
commit by running 'git add' before running 'git
commit', and the latter paths are what you _would_ commit by
running 'git commit'.
If there is no path that is different between the index file and
the current HEAD commit, the command exits with non-zero
status.
The command takes the same set of options as `git-commit`; it
shows what would be committed if the same options are given to
`git-commit`.
OUTPUT
------
The output from this command is designed to be used as a commit
template comments, and all the output lines are prefixed with '#'.
CONFIGURATION
-------------
The command honors `color.status` (or `status.color` -- they
mean the same thing and the latter is kept for backward
compatibility) and `color.status.<slot>` configuration variables
to colorize its output.
