What missed from my commit message? I had the impression that you sent a mail asking to revert the commit that hardcoded autocrlf to false for git svn. For that commit, you would have to provide the information I requested. > The question of dcommit was a question that Eric asked, and I'm not > really sure why he did. I tried to explain why in my reply. d3c9634e > never was about dcommit the way I understand it, but about clone: > http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/issues/detail?id=232 Well, technically, you are right, it is only about clone. But. If you set autocrlf to false in every git svn clone, then of course, dcommit is very much affected by the setting. Along with all other git svn operations. And since your patches aimed at undoing that patch, i.e. no longer setting autocrlf to false upon git svn clone, you have to show that git svn in general can handle autocrlf = true (or = input) just fine. And by "to show" I do not mean just test it. That is not good enough, because your workflow is more than just likely to miss out on ways other people use git svn. You have the source code, and you can look all git calls and analyze them for potential autocrlf problems.
