Using a single commit to bring in both content and whitespace changes generally (although not always) makes life harder for the translators. In fact, from what I've heard, any commit that mixes different kinds of changes (e.g. new text _and_ typos) makes life harder for translators. This probably extends to a more general rule: don't mix different kinds of changes into a single commit. Ciao, Sheldon.
