I plan to try out the GIT eclipse plugin in near future myself. This mail list have some discussion and download link to it's repo in archives.

SVN accepts only a text files which have either a "Unix" or DOS style line endings. If file contains a both some lines using "Unix" way and others using dos way SVN roll's back the commit and you need to tools like "dos2unix" or "unix2dos" to manipulate those. (And randomly changing all to either of those is propably not a good idea) Mika - 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
