Including zip/unzip? How about tar? rsync? NFS and SMB copies from network shares? I bet the Samba folks would just *love* to have this discussion for the hundredth time. Just because CVS and FTP got the defaults wrong (and modern FTP clients mostly default to automatically switching to binary, so basically just CVS) doesn't mean that Git has to get the default wrong, too. Git *does* handle and produce CRLF line breaks, as long as you tell it to. Please don't lose sight of that fact. I'm just glad that VMS is effectively dead. Line endings on VMS are stored outside the text body, IIRC... Peter Harris
