Yeah, I wondered about the different behaviour, and asked on Twitter about it. You're right, it is historical BSD behaviour and NetBSD at least still appends the newline. FreeBSD changed this in 2014 - http://bugs.freebsd.org/160745. > Related, I saw that Cirrus CI offers FreeBSD builds, maybe you'd be > interested in supporting that out of the box in > https://github.com/git/git? Indeed - there is a .cirrus.yml in git now which builds and runs tests (on FreeBSD 12.1). I'll look into working with the GitHub organization owners for git and gitgitgadget to see about allowing Cirrus to access the repositories.
