If I read the config page correctly, there are two things to be set
(just searched through the 10 occurrences of 'highlight'
diff.wsErrorHighlight
(says 'all' is valid)
color.diff.<slot>
(I think you want whitespace slot)
says you can set the various colours. Not sure about what the default
colours would be.
Beyond that, not sure. but check for any residual white space at the end
of lines in the config file.(s) ;-) !

Hi,

# Shows removed whitespace in diffs
wsErrorHighlight = all

While blank lines are acceptable, as are comment lines that start
with
the comment character, IIRC there are no trailing comments allowed
for
parameter values.
The parameter values can contain arbitrary characters (except /n
and /0,
and likely /r on Windows etc)
