Bugs: RANGER-2852
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-2852
Repository: ranger
Description
-------
**Problem Statement:** When existing java file have ^M character then patch
does not get apply.
Source code in Ranger repo has several files that have CRLF endings.
With more development happening on windows there is a higher chance of more
CRLF files getting into the source code.
**Proposed Solution:**
Inspired from HADOOP-8911 and HADOOP-8912
I would like to avoid that by creating .gitattributes file which prevents
sources from having CRLF entries in text files.
I am adding a couple of links here to give more primer on what exactly is the
issue and how we can try to fix it.
