I didn't verify, but it was only some files that had LFs, perhaps the files that I added while on the Windows machine had CRLFs. That's bad.

The project files were added to the repository on the Windows box (obviously), so those are correct.

So apparently my repository is a bit broken at the moment with LF on some files and CRLF on some. That's bad. I just assumed everything worked, it used to "just work" for CVS (except for when you actually tried to add binary files, of course).
