Even the Emacs port does it.
If you create new file, you are the one to choose CRLF or LF or accept whatever is default and put it in git repo as you want. And I agree that is ok. Any modern editor will handle all line ending styles and keep using the same as the file is already using. This includes Emacs, (G)Vim, UltraEdit, PSPad, TextPad, ... What I don't think it is ok is that someone with full consience create LF file, out it in git repo, but I get different file then one created by author. Even notepad.exe will not automatically change line endings. > > but the > > only acceptable default is to not perform any conversion by default. > > Obviously, some people disagree.
