[PATCH v6 0/7] convert: add support for different encodings

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Lars Schneider <larsxschneider@xxxxxxxxx>

Hi,

Patches 1-4, 6 are preparation and helper functions.
Patch 5,7 are the actual change.

This series depends on Torsten's 8462ff43e4 (convert_to_git():
safe_crlf/checksafe becomes int conv_flags, 2018-01-13) which is already
in next.

Changes since v5:

* added 'core.checkRoundtripEncoding' to let the end user define a list
  of encodings for which Git performs conversion round trip checks
  (Junio's feedback)
* add a test case for round trip conversions
* move all round trip related changes into a new patch
* rename has_missing_utf_bom() to is_missing_required_utf_bom() (Junio)
* remove dead code in conversion round trip check (Junio)
* use *.proj files instead of *.txt files as example (Torsten's feedback)
* recommend explicitly setting the eol attribute if working-tree-encoding
  attribute is used (Torsten)
* improve test case and check that 'git ls-files --eol' works as expected
* rename variables from checkout_encoding to working_tree_encoding


Thanks,
Lars
