... you are using the wrong tool. Source control systems are meant
for program source code where line breaks have meaning, usually
to separate program statements.
You need an XML-aware content management system that understands
that whitespace (CR, LF, TAB, etc.) must be ignored and that
the position of attributes in element tags does not matter.
So don't blame FrameMaker. All XML editors are "deficient" in this
regard if you examine their "source code". But then they all
obey the rules, so this doesn't matter.
