AW: [Bf-committers] control-m's in files

WinZip has a setting if LF should be converted to CR/LF when extracting =
a TAR file.
Cygwin users should turn this option OFF when they use the unix =
fileformat (default).
Cygwin autoconf returns strange errors when processing a CR/LF file.

Betreff: [Bf-committers] control-m's in files


I got a question from a user about the nightly tarballs messing up =
project files.

After talking to LarstiQ about cvs a couple of things came up. he =
mentioned that cvs is smart and converts the files to the appropriate =
format when you check them out.

How do we insure the project files keep them for windows users. One =
solution is windows users check in the project files with -kb (so they =
are considered binary files and not converted)

Another is we could have certain dirs that get unix2dos'd before the =
tarfiles are created...

Also, I noticed there were a few source files that have control-m's in =
them. anyone have a problem with me going through and dos2unixing them =
assuming cvs does convert them automatically.

Just to be safe can a windows user confirm deny these two issues?
