[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-1286?page=all ]

John Sisson updated GERONIMO-1286:
----------------------------------

    Description: 
Previously, the line endings on files in a Geronimo distribution were based 
upon the platform the distribution was built on.

The zip distribution now has CRLF line endings for viewable/editable text files 
(except for *.sh files) and therefore is targeted at windows users.
The tar.gz distribution now has LF line endings for non-Windows platforms. All 
non-Windows users should use the tar.gz file as the tar file also contains 
permission settings for the files.



  was:
Previously, the line endings on files in a Geronimo distribution were based 
upon the platform the distribution was built on.

The build needs to be improved so that no matter what platform Geronimo is 
built on:
* the resulting distributions should contain the same files (no files excluded)
* the resulting zip distribution should have CRLF line endings for 
viewable/editable text files and therefore is targeted at windows users.
* the resulting tar.gz distribution should have LF line endings for non-Windows 
platforms.  All non-Windows users should use the tar.gz file as the tar file 
also contains permission settings for the files.
