Diff file with changes applied by designer

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. checkout kmymoney source from git repo 
2. enter checkout out dir
3. run 
    designer-qt5 kmymoney/wizards/newloanwizard/knewloanwizard.ui 
4. save file 
5. open file again
6. change a little detail
7. save again

OBSERVED RESULT
The entire file is changed. The changed detail is not visible, making it difficult to detect such changes in Git repo or during reviewing. It also requires additional effort from developers to manually rework differences in the XML file when changes are made to ui files.

EXPECTED RESULT
The ui files should be updated so that subsequent changes can be seen and checked directly.

PLATFORM:
Linux/KDE Plasma: openSUSE Leap 15.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.49
Qt Version: 5.9.7
