I have a file from our repository where I ran auto-indent (because it was a mess), and now the whole file is marked by blue changebars (down the right hand side of the editor window), making it difficult to find my changes.
I am already ignoring whitespace changes in the diff window (as described here: Intellij and changes tab), is there a way to also do this in the editor window?

Essentially, you want Intellij to use the --ignore-all-space or --ignore-space-change upon a merge.
scanf("%*[ ]") : skip initial whitespace, if any (requested format: non empty sequence of spaces, without storing it in a variable), ignoring the result.
We use the git diff -w command to ignore all whitespace differences. It will ignore spaces at the beginning, middle, and end of lines.
To enable this feature in IntelliJ, you must open the Settings dialog ( Ctrl+Alt+S ) and navigate to the Editor | General | Appearance tab. In this tab you need to enable the Show whitespace option. In addition, you can individually enable/disable which whitespaces to show: leading, trailing or inner.
I couldn't find a way to completely ignore whitespaces, but IntelliJ (I'm using version 2016) lets you set an option to color whitespace-only changes differentely:
Editor -> General -> Different color for lines with whitespace-only modifications
which helps tremendously.
