Github for line ending windows

Question

I have a developer who works with me, and his files are randomly changed to the end of the CRLF lines.

In github for windows, it shows the correct change before committing, and when fixing the endings, the lines change and shows a bad diff.

This happens only randomly, but cannot understand why it is changing.

Answer 1

Go to the command line instead of using Github for windows. MSysGit will more closely monitor what is implemented for git for the accompanying main git source code.

git config --system core.autocrlf false git config --system core.whitespace cr-at-eol 

Do not let your version control system work with line endings if this is not necessary.

Answer 2

As mentioned in the section " gaps on the line of Android and git ":

• check if core.autocrlf to false (see " Final recommendation for git autocrlf settings ")
• check (and this would have nothing to do with GitHub for Windows ) if your repo does not contain .gitattributes files with eol directives in them, which impose a special eol style for a specific file extension.

Answer 3

v1.0.7 will take care of this. Here is a good article .
