convert files to CRLF at dist time (2.22 KB, patch)
2007-05-26 19:36 UTC, David Schleef 		none Details | Review

Description Sebastien Moutte 2007-05-25 21:37:20 UTC 
VS can't load project files in UNIX format.

VS projects files *.dsw and *.dsp need to be converted to Windows file format (for new lines) when releasing.

It'll be great if we can do it for coming releases.
The problem concerns all packages.

Thanks,
Sebastien

convert files to CRLF at dist time

Thomas, do you like this patch?
Comment 2 Jan Schmidt 2007-06-01 13:01:23 UTC 
Does CVS convert the cr/lf when they're committed or something? I want to be sure we won't end up adding lf to files that already have DOS line-endings.
Comment 3 Tim-Philipp Müller 2007-06-01 13:21:06 UTC 
Doesn't cvs do that on checkout? Maybe converting those files once and running 'cvs admin -kb' on them would be enough?
Comment 4 Thomas Vander Stichele 2007-06-05 10:07:23 UTC 
yeah, should be fixed on the VCS level for sure.  Treat the files as binary and that's it.

Possibly add a dist-time check to assure htey are, and commplain loudly if not.
Comment 5 Jan Schmidt 2007-06-05 10:26:16 UTC 
Let's do it immediately after I get this release out then - it's not a regression afaics.
Comment 6 Jan Schmidt 2007-06-05 10:46:37 UTC 
Actually, for the release, I'll run unix2dos on all the dsp and dsw files manually before disting, and then we can fix CVS afterward.
Comment 7 Jan Schmidt 2007-06-15 09:37:43 UTC 
OK, fixed in CVS for Core, Base, Good, Bad, Ugly & FFmpeg by using cvs admin -kb and unix2dos.
