I use an editor that I have set for both showing whitespace (you see
tabs, spaces) and auto-strips trailing whitespace on save.

nice tip for the git diff.

I like using dev-vcs/gitg for doing commits, viewing different branch
trees, cherry-picking (in color too).  For commits it lets you pick
changes 1 at a time (+ or -) when you've done several changes, but wish
to split them into logical commits.  Handy when you spot things that
need fixing, but don't want to forget to do after your current change
session & commit.
