Trailing whitespace in texmacs gives git-whitespace warnings; and it has brought me trouble before when I used Lyx,

I'm looking at some git clean-filter cleanups that can find an alternative representation.

To demonstrate, I'll use _ to represent space.

The line:

---8<------8<---
hello__
---8<------8<---

is stored in texmacs as:
---8<------8<---
hello_\_
---8<------8<---

But it seems like this representation will do as well:

---8<------8<---
hello_\_\

---8<---

It seems like an extra \ and new-line can be suffixed onto a trailing space and the document still parse as normal; I applied this sed to a document:

sed -e 's/ $/ \\\n/'

and then loaded and re-saved the document and it was restored to it's original form.

So... does anyone have any comments on a git clean commit script adding \\\n to the end of lines ending in white space so that there are no longer lines ending in white space?

and this entry in the .gitconfig file:

clean = "sed -e '/^<[^>]*>/h;x;/references\\|auxiliary/{x;d};x'"

means that .tm files are commited to git without the references or auxilliary sections.
When merging from git branches I so often get conflicts in those sections which can easily be regenerated.

The sed command is, but has been escaped appropriately above for the ..gitconfig file
sed -e '/^<[^>]*>/h;x;/references\|auxiliary/{x;d};x'

Here is a better clean-up which can also remove table-of-contents (which can also be re-generated):

#! /bin/sed -f

/^\( *<.table-of-contents\|<.references\|<.auxiliary\)/{h;/<\\/p};x;/^ *<\\/{x;d};x

called git-fix-texmacs, so the clean entry in [filter "texmacs"] would need pointing to where-ever this +x 1 line script is saved.
