It therefore follows that the presumption that the files in zip archives must have LF line endings is wrong. It also follows that it is wrong to assume that tar.gz files are not targetted at Windows. > Unless the archive is explicitly named > as *-win32-src.zip (take a look at httpd and apr) > different line ending are actually wrong. Not sure what you mean by different line ending here - different from what? commons-1.0.3-bin-windows.zip is explicitly for windows, yet does not have DOS endings. > What is relevant is that files that are > required to have OS line endings have them.
