Concerning the whitespace rules, if it has been decided to continue to allow hard tabs, then the program that sends these diffs needs to be fixed to make diffs more readable (see the alignment problem above).

As far as I know, it was decreed that hard tabs should be avoided. To me, the alignment of the columns looks poor both when tabs are used (because the tab width Mail.app decides to use is often different from the one the portfile author intended) and when spaces are used (because with this particular HTML/CSS combo, Mail.app is ignoring the CSS directive to make the text fixed-width). It's possible we may be switching email notification scripts entirely, to one that also supports post-revprop-change emails; see: http://trac.macports.org/projects/macports/ticket/12593 So maybe let's not worry too much about the commit emails at this point.
