I had been wondering if "fixff" would still be needed. The very old reason was that after unpacking the source tar archive some versions of tar would change the line endings. So git-for-windows does the same thing? Or should we somehow set the git metadata so that it doesn't change the line endings? -- Communication is one of the most compli..., eh, well, it's hard.
