It's fine for hello.txt, but consider longer paths, before: LF will be replaced by CRLF in /home/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello.txt. V.s.: LF will be replaced by CRLF in /home/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello/hello.txt the next time you check it out.
