The line ending format depends on the clients decision. Normally
windows clients (as delivered with CVS NT) add an extra ^M on
checkout, UNIX clients don't (obviously including the cygwin port).

WinCVS has a global Option "Checkout text files with the Unix LF (0xa)'
which didn't work (at least not like I expected to) in the 1.2.XX releases.
Now I'm using WinCVS 1.3.6.1 Beta 6 (Local Build 1) which handles this
option to my satisfaction.

Betreff: [Cvsnt] Windows Linefeed problems


We have a CVS repository, running the following version:

Server: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 1.11.1.3 rc2 (Build 55)
(client/server)

on a Win2000 box.  When we checkout or update files using a cvs client with
one of these versions:

Client: Concurrent Versions System (CVS) NT 1.11.1.2 (Build 41)
 (client/server)
Client: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 1.11.1.3 Beta 9 (Build 52)
(client/server)

It seems to add extra carriage return (^M) characters to the end of each
line.  When we checkout using this version of CVS:

Client: Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11 (client/server)

(the version that comes with cygwin) the line breaks come out correctly.

Can anyone help us understand this behavior?  Thanks very much.
