Sorry for being unclear. No, when you notice that git thinks you've made changes when you think it shouldn't, then you look at the differences git sees (`git diff`) and see if the differences are the line endings. This is the first step. If the behaviour is triggered by line endings changing you'll have to decide then what to do about it to avoid it in the future. /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0x927912051716CE39 email: mag...@therning.org jabber: mag...@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus Finagle's Fifth Law: Always draw your curves, then plot your readings. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
