The .gitattributes format is rather unintuitive. "crlf" means the file is stored as lf in the repo, but converted to/from crlf on windows. "-crlf" explicitly disables conversions, in case the user has autoconversion enabled for all files. Are you perhaps using a git tools that ignores these attributes? -- Michael Hutchinson http://mjhutchinson.com _______________________________________________ Mono-devel-list mailing list Mono-devel-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-devel-list
