Hi, all,
i just got the idea that i might want to add a separate user to one of my
repos so that i can easily see which commits come from my ODroid machine
(an ARM platform) as opposed to anywhere else (Intel platforms), so that i
can more easily narrow down any potential portability bugs made on
Is it reasonable to ask that the 'autosync' setting cause artifacts created
from the GUI to also be autosynced?
I know this would likely increase the latency of the GUI, and would
possibly create a series of error cases and/or user interactions that do
not need to be handled in the GUI today.

I know about crnl-glob. But it is a completely different issue than autocrlf
(like with Git).
As for the hash mismatch this is just a minor technical issue easily solved.
The hash would have to calculated after stripping off all CRs (Win/DOS) or
converting to LFs (Macs) in text files. Then

The job of an editor is to edit files. So if an editor were to make NL -

But what if, for example, your filesystem decided to be clever and do NL
