It is *not* necessarily a wrong place for speeches, but certainly it is wrong place to talk about whatever convert_to_git() does. Let's step back and think what the warning is about. I personally feel that "CRLF will be turned into LF" is pointless when the user expressed her preference "I want to have LF in the repository and CRLF in the working tree, when it makes sense". It is not even a warning but merely reports "we did what we were told to do." But for those who set safecrlf=warn to get that warning, we should give the warning when we actually convert the the working tree contents and strip CR from CRLF before recording it as an object. An as-is "git commit" (nothing on command line affects the index with working tree contents, e.g. "-a" or pathspec) does not do any such conversion. The "damage" the user requested to be warned has long been done before the command is run. So the warning from "git add" is good, but it shouldn't appear from anything that does "diff". -- 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
