Title: Lyx does not preserve DOS/Unix line endings Status in lyx package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: I am working on a lyx document together with people that use Windows. Every time I save the document, all line endings get converted to \n (LF). Every time someone on Windows saves the document, all line endings get converted to \r\n (CR+LF). The document is versioned using SVN which now will show every line as changed in "svn diff". This is unacceptable when merging changes from other people and I always have to use the tool "unix2dos" before committing, so that the diffs look reasonable. What I expected to happen: If opened document uses LF to end lines, save document using LF to end lines. If opened document uses CR+LF to end lines, save document using CR+LF to end lines. Like most text editors. What happened instead: LyX converts the line endings to the format "native" to the platform it is running on. LyX Version: This affects all versions prior to and including LyX 2.0.2.
