If it's important to you, you could just bite the bullet, run the  
entire source tree through an auto-formatter with the same settings as  
your IDE, then re-check it in. You'll make it a lot harder to get  
meaningful "blame" information, but at least the code will be  
consistently formatted from then on.

Alternatively, you could get a better diff program, preferably one  
that has a setting to ignore whitespace-only changes.
