Do you see a chance to have safecrlf in 1.5.4.1?
By definition of 'maint', 1.5.4.X are to fix bugs in the
features that are in 1.5.4, so the answer is no.
I expected this answer.
But we could end up having a short cycle for 1.5.5 if we agree
that the lack of crlf=safe is a severe bug that is worth fixing
post 1.5.4.
Currently I am not convinced that the lack of crlf=safe is a
severe and urgent bug worth "fixing" for 1.5.4. I see it as a
new feature, a different variant of crlf behaviour we will be
introducing for audience who are not satisfied with existing the
crlf variants.
So I should try harder to find better arguments. But this has
time until the 1.5.4 release is out. For now, I am being quiet.
(Well, I'll continue to improve the safecrlf patch and most
likely will send it to the list, too. But I don't expect to find
it anywhere in your repo before 1.5.4.)
