How to set git diff parameter in Github desktop gui
Is there a way in the latest github git gui for mac (desktop.github.com) to set the git diff parameters? For example I would like the git-gui to ignore-whitespace-change in diff
git diff --ignore-space-change
Update Apr. 2021, 5 years later, GitHub Desktop can actually hide whitespace (GitHub Desktop 2.8):
Hide whitespace in diffs
Similar to being able to see more context around your changes, sometimes there are a lot of whitespace changes in a file that don’t allow you to get a clear picture of the substantive changes that happened.
Now, in both changes and history, you can optionally hide whitespace changes to allow you to focus just on the more meaningful changes to your code.
This feature was built almost entirely by Steven Yeh (@say25), a fantastic and close community contributor to GitHub Desktop. Steven is a long-time open source contributor to GitHub Desktop, and we’re immensely grateful for him continuing to help improve the product.
