GIT-STRIPSPACE(1)                 Git Manual                 GIT-STRIPSPACE(1)

NAME
       git-stripspace - Remove unnecessary whitespace
SYNOPSIS
       git stripspace [-s | --strip-comments] < input

DESCRIPTION
       Clean the input in the manner used by Git for text such as commit
       messages, notes, tags and branch descriptions.
       With no arguments, this will:
       o   remove trailing whitespace from all lines
       o   collapse multiple consecutive empty lines into one empty line
       o   remove empty lines from the beginning and end of the input
       o   add a missing \n to the last line if necessary.
       In the case where the input consists entirely of whitespace characters,
       no output will be produced.
       NOTE: This is intended for cleaning metadata, prefer the
       --whitespace=fix mode of git-apply(1) for correcting whitespace of
       patches or files in the repository.
OPTIONS
       -s, --strip-comments
           Skip and remove all lines starting with comment character (default
           #).
       -c, --comment-lines
           Prepend comment character and blank to each line. Lines will
           automatically be terminated with a newline. On empty lines, only
           the comment character will be prepended.
EXAMPLES
       Given the following noisy input with $ indicating the end of a line:
           |A brief introduction   $
           |   $
           |$
           |A new paragraph$
           |# with a commented-out line    $
           |explaining lots of stuff.$
           |$
           |# An old paragraph, also commented-out. $
           |      $
           |The end.$
           |  $

       Use git stripspace with no arguments to obtain:
           |A brief introduction$
           |$
           |A new paragraph$
           |# with a commented-out line$
           |explaining lots of stuff.$
           |$
           |# An old paragraph, also commented-out.$
           |$
           |The end.$

       Use git stripspace --strip-comments to obtain:
           |A brief introduction$
           |$
           |A new paragraph$
           |explaining lots of stuff.$
           |$
           |The end.$
