Re: Gitattributes file is not respected when switching between branches
Sorry for delay.
".gitattributes" indeed is not present in "master", but this is intentionally It is placed only in following 2 branches: feature-branch unix-feature-branch
This is how flow looks on windows $ git --version git version 2.9.3.windows.1
vitalii.ishchenko@DESKTOP-9TC9UPB MINGW64 /c/work/repos/gitattributes (master) $ git ls-files --eol i/lf w/crlf attr/ testfile-crlf.txt
vitalii.ishchenko@DESKTOP-9TC9UPB MINGW64 /c/work/repos/gitattributes (master) $ git checkout feature-branch Switched to branch 'feature-branch' Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/feature-branch'.
vitalii.ishchenko@DESKTOP-9TC9UPB MINGW64 /c/work/repos/gitattributes (feature-branch) $ git ls-files --eol i/lf w/lf attr/text eol=lf .gitattributes i/lf w/crlf attr/text eol=lf testfile-crlf.txt
