Hi David & thanks for helping me out, So I tried again to do $ git add . this time no warnings about CRLF / LF, in fact no output, so not sure if it did anything (though took some time to process) $ git status Shows all the files in the index ok, but I don't know if it was the first git add or the second (post CRLF=false config change) that put them there .... I'd like to be certain, as 500 out of 5000 files could just get changed here ! I know I could just delete everything in .git dir, and git init again But I'm after the intelligent way to do this :-( <david@xxxxxxx> wrote in message news:alpine.DEB.1.10.0812290928370.15026@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > On Mon, 29 Dec 2008, Zorba wrote: > >> Thanks Dmitry, >> >> So I have two options to do this - edit the files direct or issue a >> command, >> thank you ! >> >> Now, my next problem is taking all my changes ($ git add . -> puts 5k >> files >> into index, with LF in place of CRLF) out of the index. >> >> Because I haven't committed anything in this repo yet... > > I think if you just do a git add . again it will put the files into the > index without doing the conversion. > > David Lang > >> $ git reset --hard >> >> ....falls over, as it has no HEAD to reset to >> >> I think I read how to do this in a tutorial somewhere, maybe with >> git-checkout, but I'm searching and can't find it. >> Any kind soul can point me in the right direction ? >> >> thanks ! >> "Dmitry Potapov" <dpotapov@xxxxxxxxx> wrote in message >> news:37fcd2780812290758q3ef989c0w5156da3098d06068@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >>>> I'd rather not let git change any files, many of which are PHP that run >>>> on >>>> Apache >>>> I think I remember reading that this is a config option that gets >>>> swithced >>>> on by default on windows (which we are running git on) >>>> >>>> how do I switch it off ? >>> >>> git config core.autocrlf false >>> >>> or if you want to ensure that all your text files have only LF then >>> >>> git config core.autocrlf input >>> >>> or if you want to disable conversion for some specific files then you >>> can >>> use 'crlf' attribute.
