Trailing whitespace always makes noises in version control system, it is meaningless. We should remove trailing whitespace to avoid annoying other team members.
I can't remember how many times the trailing whitespace makes noises in my git commits, like
in Sublime Editor, change in setting:
"trim_trailing_white_space_on_save": true
Sublime Text will remove trailing whitespace on save.
