[pygccxml-development] EOL policy

[Roman Y. <rom...@gm...>]

Hi. I would like to introduce next policy: all end of lines in files
should be CRLF.
Linux editors handle well these case, while the opposite, Windows LF,
is not true.

It could be nice, if we can make this policy to work automatically, like in CVS.
( When you commit\\update to\\from repository it will convert the eol characters
  to the system default. )

Thoughts?

Just use subversion and set the svn:eol-style.  I would suggest setting 
it to "native" so files will be treated natively on any platform.  In my 
experience this works very well for cross-platform development.

It's a property like svn:ignore. See here:

http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.2/svn.advanced.props.html#svn.advanced.props.special.eol-style

The annoying thing is that this property has to be set on each file 
individually. So for the already existing files this has to be done with 
the propset command and for new files you can configure svn so that it 
does this automatically based on the file suffix. See here:

http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.2/svn.advanced.props.html#svn.advanced.props.auto
