Automatically hides whitespace changes in GitHub pull requests for a cleaner code review experience.
Improve your code reviewing experience on GitHub with the Github Whitespace Hider. This handy Chrome extension automatically hides whitespace changes in pull requests, streamlining your review process by focusing on the changes that matter.
In the hustle of coding, it's common to inadvertently add or remove whitespaces, which can clutter the pull request diff view. These changes, although innocent in intent, can make the diff harder to read and obscure the actual code changes. That's where Github Whitespace Hider comes in.
With just a one-time installation, Github Whitespace Hider gets to work on every GitHub pull request page you visit. It automatically modifies the URL to include the 'w=1' parameter, effectively hiding whitespace changes. This allows you to review code alterations more efficiently, without the need to manually toggle the 'Hide whitespace changes' option every time.
Install Github Whitespace Hider today and enjoy a cleaner, more focused code review experience on GitHub!
