Provide ability to ignore all whitespace in diff editor (feature request)

Steps to Reproduce:

1. In settings it’s possible to set "diffEditor.ignoreTrimWhitespace": true
2. There’s no option to ignore all whitespace,

Would it be possible to add "diffEditor.ignoreAllSpaces": true? I believe the command-line to achieve this would be something like git diff --ignore-space-at-eol -b -w [commit]...

It’s been over a year and I REALLY would love to have this feature. Any chance it will be implemented?

@soundneedle, @farmerpaul, @samuelms1, @navneeth-spotnana, @WilliamLHarms This feature already exists in VS code for long now

By default now it is enabled to ignore whitespace. If not you can check click on this button to disable “Show Whitespace”:

You can notice if I enable setting “Show Whitespace”, it is showing all whitespace changes too.

That’s not quite what people are asking for. It doesn’t ignore all whitespace. It ignores leading or trailing whitespace only.
