Yes. It's much easier to review a patch done that way than to wonder if
the apparently-just-whitespace changes are masking something substantive.
In fact, if I'm reviewing a patch that reindents a big chunk of existing
code, I'll frequently not use the patch but reconstruct it that way,
just to be sure.
