On Windows, I am copying a file which has lineendings ending \n, using a filterset. The output has \r\n as line endings. (Actually, I am using cygwin; the CVS client of cygwin retrieves files coming from ant's CVS with \n and not \r\n as line ending.)
This is similar to the bug report of Peter Reilly "copy with filtering modifies line endings" http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18476 Now, in this bug report, Peter wrote "I can sort of understand why copying with filtersets modifies line endings". Do we want to leave it that way, or do we want to slightly change the implementation of copying with filtersets, so that the line endings of the original files are preserved ? Currently, I have the corresponding test FilterSetTest failing under cygwin, which is bad. (I am after failing tests under Windows, including under the combination Windows/cygwin). Cheers, Antoine
