Yes, that is the problem:  rogue white space is considered irrelevant

I plea for removal of unneeded ' ' and '	'.

That removal can be done with:

sed --in-place -e '${/^ *$/d;}' src/*.c ; git diff | wc
sed --in-place -e '${/^ *$/d;}' src/*.c ; git diff | wc
sed --in-place -e '${/^ *$/d;}' src/*.c ; git diff | wc
sed --in-place -e '${/^ *$/d;}' src/*.c ; git diff | wc
sed --in-place -e '${/^ *$/d;}' src/*.c ; git diff | wc
sed --in-place -e '${/^ *$/d;}' src/*.c ; git diff | wc
sed --in-place -e '${/^ *$/d;}' src/*.c ; git diff | wc

sed --in-place -e '${/^ *$/d;}' src/*.c ; git diff | wc
sed --in-place -e '${/^ *$/d;}' src/*.c ; git diff | wc



sed --in-place -e 's/^[ \t]*$//' src/*.c ; git diff | wc

sed --in-place -e 's/^[ \t]*$//' src/*.c ; git diff | wc
sed --in-place -e 's/^[ \t]*$//' src/*.c ; git diff | wc
