[vtk-developers] Trailing whitespace checks removed

[Brad King]

Hi Folks,

Our local pre-commit hook rejects some whitespace sequences like tab-in-indent
and trailing whitespace.  The checks are not enforced on the server, but our
workflow asks everyone to use the local checks.

After evaluating feedback we've decided to allow trailing whitespace as
explained in these commit messages:

  http://vtk.org/gitweb?p=VTK.git;a=commitdiff;h=ee8cc207
  http://paraview.org/gitweb?p=ParaView.git;a=commitdiff;h=af8a911f

Anyone that starts new topics after these commits will get the updated rules.
Your current topics will still see the check because they do not have the new
.gitattributes entries from these commits.
