If you are making the above statements in generally about git, I disagree. I have used msysgit a lot with unix-newlines projects, and it works fantastic. I am careful to work with newline-smart editors but any half-decent editor will cope. The general hint is: avoid any content-mangling options if possible, and git will do the right thing. OTOH, you might be referring to git-svn on Windows, which I have no experience with :-) cheers, martin -- martin.langhoff@gmail.com martin@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff
