Re: Question of the day N2: ~\Return

Nope.

That is not a workaround because it messes up other stuff.  Git has precise
instructions about what to do with line endings on Windows and UN*X
machines.

If you force git to always check out stuff with UN*X line endings on
Windows, you are bound (or, at least, *I* am bound for sure) to mess up
something down the road.

Been there, done that.

Cheers

Marco
