This is related to changing of newlines windows (\r\n) vs Linux (\n), you can find enough existing questions about this. – Martin van Wingerden Sep 26 '19 at 07:39

My pull request is not having ^M. Also tried to save file to unix like :e ++ff=dos then :set ff=unix & :wq. It also didn't helped. – RCS Sep 26 '19 at 07:42

Did you replace tabs by spaces or vice/versa? – Martin van Wingerden Sep 26 '19 at 07:43

No i did not replaced tabs or vice versa – RCS Sep 26 '19 at 07:44

Can you then clarify what you see? Maybe with a screenshot or output of the command line? A pull request is not directly in git, what software are you using for that? – Martin van Wingerden Sep 26 '19 at 07:45

There is a Diff setting button in the pull request. Click on it then apply Hide whitespace changes. Solved the problem.

What whitespace other than tabs/spaces or newlines do you think this ignored for you? – Martin van Wingerden Sep 26 '19 at 18:14
