Release Note:

Hide

With this change, the whitespace plug-in has been renamed 'blanks'. Users who specifically add `whitespace` to the plug-in list will need to change their parameters. The old parameters are still supported (`--whitespace-tabs-ignore-list=<list>` and `--whitespace-eol-ignore-list=<list>`) in this release but will likely be removed in the next one.

It also takes two different parameters: `--blanks-eol-ignore-file=<file>` and `--blanks-tabs-ignore-file=<file>` . These files contain regular expressions of files to ignore for their various targets, similar to the --excludes file option. By default, Apache Yetus will automatically use `.yetus/blanks-eol.txt` and `.yetus/blanks-tabs.txt` if they exist.

Flags:

Important

Under the hood, we actually use the [:blank:] character class. Renaming will likely make that clearer.
