Ick,

today I run again into a problem with the git tree of the BOINC project:
http://boinc.berkeley.edu/git/boinc-v2.git

A git pull won't work any longer due to:

$ git pull
Updating 089459d..01f0ead
error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten
by merge:
        lib/boinc_win.h
Please, commit your changes or stash them before you can merge.
Aborting

A "git diff" gave :

lib/boinc_win.h +0 -0
index 0676372..4c62ed5 100644

- --- a/lib/boinc_win.h
+++ b/lib/boinc_win.h
@@ -137,7 +137,7 @@ typedef size_t socklen_t;

#include <imagehlp.h>
#else

+#include <security.h>
#include <dbghelp.h>
#endif
#include <tlhelp32.h>

which pointed me to a ^M in line 137 of that file. I removed that ^M, but a pull still wonät work. Then I removed the file and checked it out again - no chance, git pull always fails with the same massage. Finally I tried :

$ git stash

The file will have its original line endings in your working directory.

Saved working directory and index state WIP on master: 089459d locale:
Update compiled localization files
HEAD is now at 089459d locale: Update compiled localization files

but again I run into :

$ git pull

/me wonders how to solve this w/o cloning the complete repo again.
