Git improvement for line feed processing: LF versus CR-LF
Hi
I am using git-gui on a project hosted at GitHub and the project requirement is to commit only Unix ending with LF lines as show below
When contributing to POCO, please adhere to our coding style guide
All text file line endings in the repository must be Unix-style (LF). This includes Visual Studio project and solution files (.sln, .vcproj, .vcxproj, .vcxproj.filters).
But git-gui translates states:
warning: LF will be replaced by CRLF in file.txt. The file will have its original line endings in your working directory.
Could you add a option to git-gui to specify to translate or not the end of line of the cloned repository so that my fixes be accepted by the owner of the repository.
Thank

Unless I'm completely wrong, such an option already exists, please see
