Fix warning: LF will be replaced by CRLF | GIT

This tutorial will help you to get rid of GIT warning: LF will be replaced by CRLF

This happens when developers are working in multiple operating systems. Line breaks are treated differently in different operating systems, therefore, GIT throws warning before converting the LF line endings with CRLF.

I've explained 2 methods of fixing it:

1) Running a command through the terminal for the currently working user
2) Making a global change so that no user gets this warning

#GIT #CRLF #LF

I got the same error. I tried this fix but did not work. What seemed to work for me was I had made a folder in my repository to contain all the bad programs I had written (OPC is a beast to learn). After I relocated those files to an area not within my repository, my changes committed without a problem.

Hello Code SOS!! I've followed the 1st step and the warning still appears, why do you think this happens?

Does this allow mac/windows users to see CRLF and LF as the same or will this ONLY remove the warning error? Currently when i do file comparison it shows as different file sizes.

hi thanks for posting this video although i am very confused by this since i saw the same code elsewhere with the ending written false instead of true and now im quite confused ...maybe you could assist me there

"git config --global core.autocrlf true" never seems to work for me, but it looks like the .gitattributes file may have done the trick. Thanks!
