Alexander Kriegisch commented on MRELEASE-899:
----------------------------------------------
[~michael-o], instead of leaving this open for 5 years and then just starting
again to lecture users who are grown-up developers just like you like little
school kids, why don't you just get it over with and close the issue as "won't
fix"? It is more than obvious that you are just looking for an excuse not to
implement it.
> release:prepare should not change the line separator but detect effective

> Key: MRELEASE-899
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRELEASE-899
> Project: Maven Release Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Ralph van Etten
> Priority: Major
>
> Currently the plugin use the system property {{line.separator}} when it
> rewrites the pom.xml.
> This causes trouble, because every line in changed, when a project is
> released sometimes under Windows and sometimes under Linux (because of its
> different line separators).
> (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11868590/maven-release-plugin-and-windows-line-breaks)
> Therefore it would be a nice feature when the plugin would not use the
> systems line separator but the line separator that is already used in the
> pom.xml.
> On the other hand, changing the existing behaviour would maybe, also harm
> someone else.
> Therefore it would be an great feature when there would be an property that
> define the expected behaviour, maybe in the same way it is done by the
> maven-assembly-plugin's property fileSet.lineEnding
> (http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/component.html#class_fileSet)
