Subclipse (SVN) Compare showing similar files

Question

It seems whenever I compare via the SVN Repository explorer (most recently after a merge) subclipse will show a few files in the compare window that have no differences whatsoever. Double clicking the file brings up the Java Source Compare window, but Subclipse highlights no sections and shows no differences. A manual inspection of the file shows they are identical. What causes this? Are there any ways to disable it, it can be quite confusing?

Your help is greatly appreciated!

Answer 1

Sounds like it could be whitespace-related. Maybe tortoise defaults to ignoring ws changes.

Answer 2

Seems to be Eclipse bug, which waits for solution...
