Hi, I have tried to repro this issue but git goes out of its way to store the commit messages using unix end-of-line format. I think that git itself cannot create a repo exhibiting this problem. Most helpful would be if you could create a mini repo using gitlab. All it would need is one file, two branches, and a merge. With that in hand, it should be pretty easy to track down the problem and fix git. You mentioned that the previous version you were using was working fine, can you tell me which version that was? It'll help to narrow down the changes that could have affected the issue. Thanks, Atousa
