Add --ignore-whitespace option when patching

[rodrigoaguilera]

I found a case where the plugin fails to patch a file generated with git diff

The git project is https://www.drupal.org/project/nexus And I attach the patch

test-whitespace.txt

After some digging I discovered that is a whitespace problem and that adding --ignore-whitespace to the patch command makes the patch to be applied.

My temporary solution was to generate the patch with diff instead of git

Can we add that option by default?

Or at least configurable like the patchlevel

Thank you for such a great project :)

would be a decent default value 👍

I've created #370 which implements this as a config option you can add to your composer.json.

See #370 -- IMO, just fix the patch if it's causing issues.
