??Another suggestion:
Jalview Project Configuration: If we add a file to the root of the Jalview project named .gitattributes containing this line: * text=auto then that should ensure that all commits of text files are normalised to LF (not CRLF) line endings. See https://help.github.com/articles/dealing-with-line-endings/#per-repository-settings NB I haven't actually committed or tried this yet because I am cautious about the note at https://help.github.com/articles/dealing-with-line-endings/#refreshing-a-repository-after-changing-line-endings ________________________________ From: [email protected] <[email protected]> on behalf of David Roldán Martínez <[email protected]> Sent: 08 October 2014 10:52 To: Jalview Development List Subject: Re: [Jalview-dev] Git diffs and newline characters Good idea!

I'm assuming here that files in Git are generally Unix formatted. I'll keep digging into Git configuration options to control the diffs as well, but this seem to be a bit...problematic....
