diff: Compare files, ignoring white spaces.
$ diff --ignore-all-space ${old_file} ${new_file}
try on your machine
The command "diff --ignore-all-space ${old_file} ${new_file}" is used to compare the contents of two files, specifically the old_file and new_file, and find the differences between them.
The "--ignore-all-space" option in the command is used to ignore all white spaces (spaces, tabs, and line breaks) when comparing the files. It means that any differences caused by changes in white spaces between lines will be disregarded.
By running this command, you can see a list of lines that differ between the old_file and new_file, excluding any white space changes.
