It's a combination of - the canonical representation of a newline is LF, so the repository stores LF - with safecrlf, checkout converts LF->CRLF and add converts CRLF->LF So from the user's POV, running git add withlf.txt rm withlf.txt git checkout -- withlf.txt would appear to replace LF with CRLF in the worktree. That's what the message says. -- Thomas Rast trast@{inf,student}.ethz.ch -- 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
