Hi Folks,
I encounter unexpected behavior in the following case:
file content:
line1<CR><LF> line2<CR> line3<CR><LF> line4
This is what I get as console output (on Windows):
> git blame -s file.txt
7db36436 1) line1 line3436 2) line2 7db36436 3) line4
This is the real content:
> git blame -s file.txt > blame.txt
blame.txt opened in Notepad++:
7db36436 1) line1 <CR><LF> 7db36436 2) line2 <CR> line3 <CR><LF> 7db36436 3) line4 <LF>
Admittedly, very stupid editors, such as Windows Notepad, cannot handle mixed line endings as well. But is this also the way git blame should behave?
Kind regards Konstantin
