I do not have much to add to what area experts already said on bits specific to Git for Windows, but on just this part: > - Our builds were not breaking, it was production due to deployment > model utilizing Git.

But isn't there a distinction between the logical content and its physical representation? In source code (that is what developers use a source code management system for), especially those of cross-platform projects, the logical lines end with LF and physical lines end with whatever is convenient on the platform of each participant of the project. There needs a way to convert between the two. It does not sound fair to call it a crime if the port to a platform, whose users (at least the majority of them) expect the latter to be CRLF, chose to default to that to help the majority, as long as there are ways for the minority power users to choose to use LF in the physical representation on their working trees. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
