It was probablty me who suggested to report this issue here on the mailing list. Thanks for doing so. I extracted your test script, run it on a Mac, and it seems to give a different result then your run. Just to quote the las lines: +++ patch no CR HEAD is now at a47b66d init +++ After reset and before patch LF cr/foo LF lf/foo LF lf/.gitattributes +++ After patch LF cr/foo LF lf/foo LF lf/.gitattributes --------- Seeing this, I am unsure what is going on. It may be an idea to convert the script into a real git test case, and send it to the list. There is a command git ls-files --eol to let Git report the line endings of files Using ---------------- echo "this is what I expected" >expect && git ls-files --eol >actual && test_cmp expect actual ------------------ would allow everybody to see what is possible wrong.
