man git-config - look for 'core.whitespace'. It will not trim it
automatically, but you can set color.diff to true (again, look at man
git-config ) and it will mark it nicely when you do git diff.

Yes. Do not commit config.php :-)

I do not think it is packaged in RPM, so the easiest thing is to put
it in lib/zend-gdata or something like that. Make sure you commit the
code unchanged, and put in the commit message what exact version it
is. And remove _all_ documentation and sample code files.

cheers,
