Yes absolutely. But how do you tell autocrlf that the repository is compatible with it? This is what is causing all the problems. Now, I propose to change autocrlf in such a way that it will work as before for all repositories that are "compatible with it", but _also_ so that it works reasonably with those that aren't. - Finn Arne -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
