A lot of .inc files in /core/includes (D8) and /include (D7) have trailing whitespace at the end of the file. These patches fix this.

Not quite:

All text files should end in a single newline (\n). This avoids the verbose "\ No newline at end of file" patch warning and makes patches easier to read since it's clearer what is being changed when lines are added to the end of a file.

"single newline" means *one* newline. This patch fixes those files which have *two* newlines.

I think this patch is correct. (If it weren't I believe it would be full of added \No newline at end of file barf.)

Cool. I think we need a plan to postponed all these issues (spaces / tabs / comment head format) and fix them at very the end of D8 development.

(but this one also exist in D7)

Actually, now is the best time to fix this sort of stuff, when there's no scary D8 deadlines looming. See also #1310084: [meta] API documentation cleanup sprint and the core gates. Ensuring that code conforms to our style and documentation standards should not be postponed to the last minute; it should be a consistent part of the development process.

Yeah, I agreed to clean up documentation / big standards issue right now but for above one is a small case.

anyway, another coding standards issue, affected around 124 files: #1109202: [meta] Fix coding standards violations across Drupal core

The trailing whitespace fixed by these patches is not addressed in #1109202: [meta] Fix coding standards violations across Drupal core, and these patches do not conflict with #1109202: [meta] Fix coding standards violations across Drupal core. This issue deals with a trivial problem I noticed while rolling a patch for a different issue, and it's something that shouldn't need discussion.

IMO it's far easier to fix the little things as we go along - patches like this have little to no impact on other works in progress.

Issue tags: +Needs backport to D7

Committed/pushed to 8.x. There's no tag here, but there's a 7.x patch so adding the tag and setting CNR against that branch.

Re-uploading d7 patch with a new name so the bot can test it, and as it looks fine, setting to RTBC (pending test bot passage).

Committed and pushed to 7.x, though I'd really love to stop committing patches like this and instead get automated checks built into testbot via http://drupal.org/project/coder and/or http://drupal.org/project/drupalcs. As of http://jthorson.doesdrupal.com/node/34 testbot can now do "Advisory" code reviews for just this purpose.

Automatically closed -- issue fixed for 2 weeks with no activity.
