Hi Nam,

I did all the steps to have my branch updated with the origin/main
branch, but I've found out that was something more.

Thank you for poiting that out. You're right. I found that was indeed an issue on my
side thanks to your input.

There was indeed and accident commit modifying more than one line in my
tree, hence the "trailing whitespaces" messages in one of the commits.
So, to clean evertyhing up, I decided to drop these commits and start
all over again, from scratch. That way I'm sure I'm not messing up
anything else. I just sent a fresh patch in another thread.
