These make me ask more questions. What is the default line ending character for ASCII files store in a repository ?. Is this varies from OS to OS ?. Does CVS client or server is supposed to perform the line ending character conversion when a ASCII file is committed ?
Now the root cause of my problem is that when checked in by windows developers using Eclipse it have CR/LF as line ending character and it is stored as it is. Now I want that all files must be stored in Unix format. rgds Antony Paul On Wed, 17 Nov 2004 06:37:51 -0800, Jim <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Antony Paul wrote: > > > > >Hi all, > > Is it possible to tell cvs to ignore difference in white space and > >CR/LF when committing changes to a file.
