Xavier Hanin commented on IVY-470:
----------------------------------

Yes, I also noticed things like that, in the diff sent to the commit mailing list for instance. What I'm still wondering about is if xooki doesn't already use always the same end of line, but since some pages were never modified using xooki before, they still have another eol. This is only a guess however, since I've never investigated. What could be done quite easily if it's not easy to make sure that xooki always use the same eol char, would be to use ant fixcrlf task on the doc before commiting. OTOH I don't know how svn:eol-style properties can be used, so maybe there is a good solution with it too. But I think that it would really be better to avoid changing eol when we edit pages using xooki, so maybe the svn solution won't really help for that, I don't know.

> When playing with patches and svn update, I notice a small issue with the doc files.  It seems that we have some 'changing end of line' characters into the part editable by xooki.  I guess it is according to the OS where we edit the file.
> For a concrete example:
> I modified locally (on Windows) a file in the browser directly.  I made an svn update that was conflicting.  In theory I didn't modified the same lines than the one modified in the repository.  So the merge should have been done automatically.  However, svn was considering that all the textarea content was conflicting.
> I'm not sure where the fix should be done: either in xooki to always save using the same end of line character (I don't if it is feasible) or in the svn properties 'svn:eol-style' of the files.
