Please, do not oversimplify the situation. Just one example:

  1- A TCL file is checked in on windows

  2- It is checked out on unix and line ending is "\r\n"

  3- Many TCL files start with:

        #!/bin/sh
        # the next line restarts using wish \
        exec wish "$0" "$@"

  4- chmod +x $file

  5- This file is NOT going to execute on Unix

Second example:

  1- I create a nice README or License file for my application in unix

  2- I checkout in Windows

  3- README files are open by the user (not by my that I use a wonderful
     convert-all editor). In Windows, they typically open with Notepad.

  4- The file is viewed as with one very long line


  I am sure that I can find much more examples.
