Hi All, Several of my projects (e.g.: nunitv2, nunit-3.0, nunit-summary) started out on windows and have crlf line endings. Now that I've got a few people working in linux, we are starting to see issues with our diffs, with the real changes buried in the midst of a bunch of line ending changes.
I've looked at using the eol setting in the rules file, but I have a 'few' questions... 1) Will using this filter require updating each dev's repo format? What about the format on Launchpad? 2) How can I ensure that everybody uses the proper eol value? 3) How can I initially force all the stored line endings to the selected value? Or do I have to do that? 4) If I do make such a change, will it mess up the history? 5) Am I better off using native or native-with-crlf-in-repo in this situation? 6) Is this likely to get easier in the future and - if so - am I better off doing something temporary for now and planning on a major change later?
