The standard advice for text file eol endings in the .gitattributes file was updated in e28eae3184 (gitattributes: Document the unified "auto" handling, 2016-08-26) with a recent clarification in 8c591dbfce (docs: correct documentation about eol attribute, 2022-01-11), with a follow up comment by the original author in [1] confirming the use of the eol attribute in conjunction with the text attribute. Update Git's .gitattributes file to reflect our own advice. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/git/?q=%3C20220216115239.uo2ie3flaqo3nf2d%40tb-raspi4%3E. Signed-off-by: Philip Oakley <philipoakley@iee.email> --- I was catching up on last year's back emails, and had saved those on eol and text conversion, and was prompted by Torsten's [1] to check my .gitattribute files, only to discover, we aren't providing a good example to others. Let's fix that. .gitattributes | 22 +++++++++++----------- 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) diff --git a/.gitattributes b/.gitattributes index b0044cf272..158c3d45c4 100644 --- a/.gitattributes +++ b/.gitattributes @@ -1,17 +1,17 @@ * whitespace=!indent,trail,space *.[ch] whitespace=indent,trail,space diff=cpp -*.sh whitespace=indent,trail,space eol=lf -*.perl eol=lf diff=perl -*.pl eof=lf diff=perl -*.pm eol=lf diff=perl -*.py eol=lf diff=python -*.bat eol=crlf +*.sh whitespace=indent,trail,space text eol=lf +*.perl text eol=lf diff=perl +*.pl text eof=lf diff=perl +*.pm text eol=lf diff=perl +*.py text eol=lf diff=python +*.bat text eol=crlf CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md -whitespace -/Documentation/**/*.txt eol=lf -/command-list.txt eol=lf -/GIT-VERSION-GEN eol=lf -/mergetools/* eol=lf -/t/oid-info/* eol=lf +/Documentation/**/*.txt text eol=lf +/command-list.txt text eol=lf +/GIT-VERSION-GEN text eol=lf +/mergetools/* text eol=lf +/t/oid-info/* text eol=lf /Documentation/git-merge.txt conflict-marker-size=32 /Documentation/gitk.txt conflict-marker-size=32 /Documentation/user-manual.txt conflict-marker-size=32 -- 2.39.1.windows.1
