Can you try pulling the latest changes down from wix39 and/or wix40 branches. 
Then do:

git rm --cached -r .
git reset -hard

The idea is that is supposed to reset your local files to match the stuff in 
the repo. Hopefully, you end up with no files modified as I do now. Basically, 
it's the first steps of the "re-normalization" described here: 
https://help.github.com/articles/dealing-with-line-endings

I feel like my git-fu just isn't quite strong enough for this problem and about 
to go tilt and just pick up and move to a fresh new repo without any history 
(which I *really* *really* do not want to do). Grrr....

Ok,  I'll just ignore the wall of red and green like I tried to do last week 
when I encounter those files.

Unclear. I think we're better off but I've had a very hard time determining 
which files still need to be updated everywhere. On my machine those files are 
all CRLF now. I'm hoping there are very few files left...

Are we supposed to be LF free right now?  I'm still seeing some LF files in 
wix40, namely src/burn/engine/msiengine.cpp and 
src/tools/wix/ChainPackageInfo.cs.

Thanks for all the kind words,
Sean

First, thanks to Sean's persistence I think we've addressed the majority (if 
not all) of our whitespace issues in the WiX repo. Thus, there are a lot of 
commits waiting for you in your next commit. Fortunately, most of the 
whitespace changes seem to be in test code (which most of which is ancient and 
really needs some deep cleaning/deleting).

Second, I want to commend Sean for pushing through on the issue. I've seen 
similar persistence from Jacob and Bruce as well. This persistence is 
incredibly useful when getting started in a project with as much depth/history 
as the WiX toolset. There are others here like Mike, Blair and Heath that have 
been with the WiX toolset via their work at Microsoft and had an easier ramp up 
since we could all be in the same room learning together.

Anyway, I do hope you all stick with it and I wanted you guys to know how much 
I appreciate the effort you've put in lately.

Finally, I know there are others out there that have contributed (Neil and 
Robert JvdB) and others that are just getting started (like another Rob who I 
need to start the assignment agreement for). I'm very excited about what is 
being contributed and I'm really encouraged.

Again, thank you for all your efforts of late. As always, if there are things 
we can improve, let's start the discussion here and see what can get done.

virtually,

  Rob Mensching
