Re: [Rails-devel] Whitespace Problems

[brett l. <bre...@gm...>]

The issue is that we want line endings to be consistent in the repository,
regardless of platform.

Text=auto just sets all of the line endings to whatever your platform is
using.

See the documentation on the core.autocrlf and core.safecrlf config
options: https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-config.html

Basically, we just need to agree whether LF or CRLF will be the "standard"
for the repository, and ensure the repository is configured to auto-convert
in the correct direction when committing and pushing changes.
