[dna-dev] Line feeds [Action Required]

We're wrapping up our final few issues targeted for the 0.4 release, and one of those (DNA-277) was to fix all of the line terminators in our files to be just LF. If we don't use the same line terminators, performing diffs in some tools (including Git) consider the whole file to be changed. This is something that quite a few other JBoss projects do, and it simply helps portability across our different development platforms and tools. Most of the time, we probably won't even notice the difference. We changed the Eclipse preferences back in January but were waiting until the end of a release cycle to change the files. (Please make sure you're using these preferences and are using Unix-style line endings.) There actually weren't too many files that needed to be fixed. But there were some, and I just committed the corrections. In addition to the Eclipse preferences, we can each modify our ~/.subversion/config file to make the SVN command-line tool ensure each uploaded file has the proper line endings. There is now a README_COMMITTERS.txt file under 'trunk/' that describes to make this change. I'm not sure if the Eclipse Team plugin for SVN automatically reads these settings, but you can go into Eclipse preferences (under Team->SVN->Properties Configuration) and import your config file. Thanks for your cooperation. Best regards, Randall
