In case anyone else is facing this same situation, a simple script like this did the trick for me:

------------------------------------------------ #!/bin/bash

find ./ -type f | grep -v .git | while read filename
do
	last=$(
		tail -c 1 "$filename" | 
		od -x | 
		head -n 1 | 
		awk '{ print $2 }'
	)
	
	if [ "x$last" != "x000a" ]
	then
		echo >> "$filename"
	fi
done
------------------------------------------------
