What's the best CRLF,EOL in git

index.txt

Two alternative strategies to get consistent about line-endings in mixed environments (Microsoft + Linux + Mac): 

A. Global per All Repositories Setup

1) Convert all to one format

find . -type f -not -path "./.git/*" -exec dos2unix {} \;
git commit -a -m 'dos2unix conversion'
2) Set core.autocrlf to input on Linux/UNIX or true on MS Windowns (repository or global)

git config --global core.autocrlf input
3) [ Optional ] set core.safecrlf to true (to stop) or warn (to sing:) to add extra guard comparing if the reversed newline transformation would result in the same file

git config --global core.safecrlf true


B. Or per Repository Setup

1) Convert all to one format

find . -type f -not -path "./.git/*" -exec dos2unix {} \;
git commit -a -m 'dos2unix conversion'
2) add .gitattributes file to your repository

echo "* text=auto" > .gitattributes
git add .gitattributes
git commit -m 'adding .gitattributes for unified line-ending'
Don't worry about your binary files - Git should be smart enough about them.
