sorry about the whitespace (my editor removes it automatically),
I would have reverted that, but I remembered something on the mailinglist
about removing all the trailing whitespace, so I removed them.
I tried to see if you fixed this, but it looks like you forgot.

Some notes:

1.) Can we add something to the branch to specify that for certain or all
files we should
  a.) automatially remove trailing whitespace or
  b.) refuse to commit it.
  So that we don't get into this mess. This might have been descussed
before. It could be implemented as a plugin.

2.) Annotate should be able to cope with this. mabye add an option to ignore
whitespace changes.
     I often get into a situation where I try to find the true author of a
line (to blame/praise them:),
     but sometimes the line might have been tuched by several people in the
past.
     I thought the bisect plugin could help with this, but I was never able
to obtain it,
     I must probably try again.
