After talking to @rdmarsh2 (the other frequent Windows user within Semmle), we think we want the line endings in the working directory to be LF even on Windows, just so we're always working with files that are identical to what everybody on Linux and OSX are using. I've submitted PR #106 to do this. It's possible that setting |

I tested this by adding a new CRLF-style text file to the repo. When I did
git add newfile.txtI got the following, which is what I expected:I couldn't provoke git into converting an existing CRLF-style file into LF-style, and I don't know whether it's good or bad that they stay as they are until somebody explicitly converts them. We currently have 325 CRLF-style files in this repository.
