I am against this because it adds a lot of noise to patches I am trying to review.
I have seen PRs where white space changes account for more than half the patch I am trying to review.

Dropping trailing spaces on the lines you’re modifying is OK but in the whole file is too noisy IMO.

To reduce the overhead of switching between projects with different
whitespace requirements, I would like to suggest we start being
lenient when trailing whitespace is removed. In particular when a file
is being changed to fix a bug.

I could see going even further and enforcing this via the style
checker, if there is appetite for that.

Thanks for considering!
