Hi there, I'm new to Git, so apologies if this is already available, but after some searching and experimenting I haven't been able to resolve it. I am running Git 2.6.4.windows.1 on Windows 7 64 bit. I have the global configuration variable core.autocrlf=true When I commit, the commit message template file is loaded into my configured text editor (in this case Windows Notepad), however the comment lines are terminated with LF, not CRLF, and so are not displayed as new lines by Notepad. In the opposite direction, the output of 'git log' redirected to a file has all EOL characters set to LF, when originally entered as CRLF, so automatic conversion is working I have tried to generate a custom commit message using the commit.template variable, but the commented lines are appended to this file, creating a mixture of EOL characters! Is there a way to fix this inconsistency?
