[mylyn-reviews-dev] End-of-line-normalization

Hi everyone,

Please see 390965: End-of-line-normalization for all R4E code artifacts https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=390965 and note line 1 below..

In order to have reasonably usable diffs and to follow Eclipse protocol, we should convert R4E from CRLF to LF. I've discussed this with Sebastien, and just tested it on our github. Now, a committer (Sebastien? No need to reply on list.) needs to do the following: on master. This should happen before I post the model changes and I need to get it off master or we're asking for hell when we try to merge all of this later. :D

1. All devs should set core.autocrlf=false in their global configs, and new file delimiter set to LF (Unix). (Things will still work fine for the most part even if you don't do this, but it will be easier and more consistent for local files if you do this. Also, we'll need to fix the Junit tests.)

2. Run the following script: See http://stackoverflow.com/a/4683783/1672081 and http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/eclipse-dev/msg09216.html:

cheers,

Miles
