Thanks, I already suspected something like that. Has this behavior been changed/added recently ? I didn't observe it before, although the project I'm currently looking into has always been using CR+LF... Why does the ^M only show up in '+' lines ? When changing the line end from CR+LF to LF, the diff looks like this: -blahblah +blahblah But I would expect it to be -blahblah^M +blahblah Regards, Frank > If you want, you can commit those files with > CRLF in the working tree, and LF in the repo. > > More information may be found here: > > https://git-scm.com/docs/gitattributes > > (Or ask more questions here, if needed)

Under Linux/Unix/Mac OS X a line is terminated with a single "line feed", LF. Windows typically uses CRLF at the end of the line. "git diff" uses the LF to detect the end of line, leaving the CR alone. Nothing to worry about. If you want, you can commit those files with CRLF in the working tree, and LF in the repo.

git diff: meaning of ^M at line ends ?
What does ^M at the end of lines in the output of 'git diff' mean ? Thanks, Frank
