Well, there's about 100 million years since I last used cygwin but back
then it could be setup to either use unix newlines or windows (CRLF)
newlines. And then if you'd mix in using other external (from cygwin's
point of view) tools you would get something that wouldn't follow
cygwin's view of life
I am using msysgit for Windows and there are my Git settings:
Like here, you're not using cygwin's git so cygwin's configured way of
handling newlines may not be the same as msysgit's.
Out of curiousity, I did a dos2unix on all files and it does work
except for tool_hugehelp.c and install. Critical files are already
flagged in .gitattributes to avoid such problems. The problem is which
is problematic now.
What do you suggest we do?
I was finally able to make some progress on the issue. I have installed
git with cygwin, so CR problems anymore. Though the following is still open:
1. docs/INSTALL [1] says that a mere configure is sufficient.
Unfortunately it is not. You need to pass --host=mingw32 otherwise
it won't execute ar correctly and some other stuff will fail.
Should I provide a PR?
2. make install still throws sed errors like:
sed: -e expression #1, char 3: unknown command: `.'
I was able to tackle at least one to
docs/libcurl/opts/Makefile.in:700: | sed -n '/\.3[a-z]*$$/p'; \
Unfortunately, I have no idea what is wrong with that expression.
If someone has a clue, please speak up.
