My two cents:

As already stated by Ken Rice, trailing spaces are not a problem. And I personally had a bad experience in purely aesthetic code cleanups. It messes up the "blame" function of the VCS (git in this case), once the last modifications in the the altered lines will be assigned to whoever commited the cleanup.

Ken mentioned there's nothing wrong with white spaces in another mail, I agree but still think it's a little pain to generate "clean" diff when there's many trailing spaces involved. And as I said doing this could affect all devs So I'd like to get their ideas, especially we have more branches than before it's means need more merge and possible there's conflicts...

1200+ files with trailing whitespace does seem a bit excessive, however I don't know how large a "problem" it really is. If you're going to do whitespace cleanup I recommend starting small, like with mod_rtmp.c. Run your whitespace cleanup script on just a few files, recompile them, verify that it's all good, then commit & push. I don't know about the other devs, but I would feel much more comfortable with small, controlled updates than a large sweep that does a lot of files.

Just my $0.02...

some editors insert tabs automatically when you press enter.

can you show us an example of code w/ trailing whitespaces?
