Re: [mylyn-dev] line ending conversion

[Steffen Pingel <steffen.pingel@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

To solve this problem would it be sufficient to:

* set core.autocrlf=input on Windows, 

* have Eclipse workspace settings setup to use Unix line endings (if using non-Eclipse file editors, setup those to use Unix line endings too)

* commit within Eclipse using EGit

Existing Git working directories might need to be checked out again with this new setting

That sounds like a solution. 

If I understand the discussion correctly, we could also create a .gitattributes file to move the configuration from the client to the repository: http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/eclipse-dev/msg09216.html
