David Crossley commented on FOR-644:
------------------------------------

This is great. I tried it on our dtdx plugin, then published our website again. 
This revealed an issue with xsl stylesheets formatting which collapsed the 
single space in an <xsl:text> element. xmlformat.conf to the rescue.

So i am going to do similar tests with some of our other more obscure plugins.

Another warning:

If developers do not get their trunk changes contributed/committed, then i 
expect that you are going to need to move your changed files out of the way 
before doing 'svn update' after the code-freeze.

In such a case, there is an option for you. Install xmlformat and run our Ant 
target over your own working copy (thus using the same xmlformat.conf) then 
check with diff. See main/build.xml r526505.
