2. Some people are dissatisfied with the way line endings are handled,
especially on Windows
Here is my suggestion: all text files that do not explicitly need otherwise should have Unix line endings in the upstream repository. Example of text files that need Windows-style endings are .bat files.
Windows users may then choose to automatically convert those files to Windows-style endings on checkout, or not. The point of this approach is that everything just works regardless of the setting you choose to use.
