tells me that the sed command is missing the -b option to treat input
files as binary.  Its taking all the input files, which are in DOS format,
and converting them to POSIX line endings, which is causing our source
control system to act as if every line in the file is changed.
I use SED very frequently, and I have never had it change anything that was not in the script. Most of my scripts have multiple sed scripts, and usually remove the windows line endings because some of the files I modify have crlf in them. But, just to reiterate, I have never had sed change the line endings without the proper script.
