            Bug ID: 6042
           Summary: commit --interactive surprising behavior when .hgrc
                    includes [diff] ignorews=True
           Product: Mercurial
           Version: earlier
          Hardware: All
                OS: Mac OS
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: bug
          Priority: wish
         Component: Mercurial
          Assignee: bugzilla at mercurial-scm.org
          Reporter: schneck at gmail.com
                CC: mercurial-devel at mercurial-scm.org

With this .hgrc:

    [ui]
    username=Robert Tupelo-Schneck <schneck at gmail.com>

    [diff]
    ignorews=True

I find that hg commit --interactive behaves surprisingly.  It does not see
changes to whitespace.  As a result even when I ask the interactive commit
process to commit all changes to a file (or all files) it leaves whitespace
changes uncommitted.
