I'm pretty sure r142864 fixed this (perhaps unintentionally) by changing all line endings in DumpRenderTree.sln from CRLF to LF.

WebKit's .gitattributes file contains the following: *.vcproj eol=crlf *.vsprops eol=crlf *.sln eol=crlf This tells git, "When storing this file in the repository, convert all line endings to LF. When checking out this file to disk, convert all line endings to CRLF." If the committed version of the file in the repository contains CRLF line endings, git will show a diff that converts the CRLF line endings to LF. eol=crlf means that the line endings *in the repository* should be LF, so git is trying to fix it. I think the thing to do is to set svn:eol-style to "native" for all .vcproj, .vsprops, and .sln files. That way Subversion will commit the files using LF line endings (like git wants), and check them out using CRLF on Windows (like Visual Studio wants). > In fact, I don’t know how to set a Subversion property using git-svn which > means I can’t easily just jump in and fix this like I would have in the past. I don't think git-svn can set properties. When I've had to change properties in the past I've checked out the appropriate subset of WebKit using Subversion and made my changes there. -Adam _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org https://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-dev
