Git's pre-commit hook to remove trailing whitespaces/tabs
#!/bin/sh
#
# This will abort "git commit" and remove the trailing whitespaces from the files to be committed.
# Simply repeating the last "git commit" command will do the commit then.
#
# Put this into .git/hooks/pre-commit, and chmod +x it.
