git core.autocrlf = true
.gitattributes file:
* text=auto eol=lf
*.bat eol=crlf
*.ps1 -text
After pushing to remote:
| File name | Local EOL | GitHub EOL |
|---|---|---|
| test.text | CRLF | LF |
| test.bat | CRLF | LF |
| test.ps1 | CRLF | CRLF |
(Determining GitHub EOL was done by downloading the raw file and checking its EOL.)
After doing git rm -rf --cached . and git reset --hard HEAD:
| File name | Local EOL | GitHub EOL |
|---|---|---|
| test.text | LF | LF |
| test.bat | CRLF | LF |
| test.ps1 | CRLF | CRLF |
* text=auto eol=lf: text=auto - Git will auto-detect whether a file is text or binary. eol=lf - all text files, unless specified otherwise, will have LF as end-of-line upon checkout.
*.bat eol=crlf: Files will have LF on the remote repo, but CRLF on the local system.
*.ps1 -text: The text attribute is unset, which tells Git not to attempt any end-of-line conversion upon checkin/checkout; files will be as-is. This means that anyone can change the EOL on the remote repo, which may lead to inconsistency.
