I did... Guenter: .sh and .m4 should be retrieved LF formatted Bill: Text (.sh .m4 etc) are text. Guenter: No, .sh .m4 etc are binary. Bill: /boggles Text is text, scripts are text, mixed conventions make .diff's nearly unparsable, all of which are technical rationals.

This is most certainly at odds.
