LF will be replaced by CRLF
I was getting following message while trying to add files to GIT index:
Warning: LF will be replaced by CRLF ….
By google search I found that – whenever tried to add files to the repository, git thinks that, the file is a text file and all files automatically will have their LF line endings converted to CRLF endings.
It’s an important warning for a binary file because git incorrectly assesses a binary file to be a text file but it’s OK for text file.
The line-ending conversion can be prevent by setting false of core.autocrlf attribute. By default it remains true.
The command is as follows(in Bash mode):
git config core.autocrlf false
