Thanks Mike. Line endings have been a consistent problem creators for me for the .sh and .bat files while working on Python UEFI project.
At times I used to run dos2linux command to convert the .sh scripts line endings from \r\n format to \n format to fix the compilation issues on Linux. So, thought of using the .gitattributes feature from github to normalize the line endings for these 2 types of text files. Will wait to hear from Leif on the changes being evaluated for Tinocore repos on Line endings.

This feature changes the line endings locally when checked out. Instead, the edk2 repo uses a CI check like PatchCheck.py to make sure files with specific extensions have the correct line endings when they are checked in and files are checked out unmodified. I know Leif has been evaluating some line ending changes to TianoCore Repos. Don't know if this direction is in alignment with those ideas or not.
