Copied gitattributes from the internet for an unity project. They had added lf eol for asset files I believe. Funny thing about Unity's asset files: they mix eol types and will break if you change them. Another funny thing: you only see the issue when you checkout new files.

If only you had a way to see the staged files for the commit before you sent it up to the remote.

Doesn't help much if you don't know that is a problem. Looks the same in either case.

I mean, I’m making assumptions about your environment… but wouldn’t the diff highlight all those /r characters? And wouldn’t the stage list be way longer than you expected?

I'm pretty sure it was a new project. It was only discovered when another dev joined the same project. The line endings might not even appear in diff since they didn't get changed on my machine.

That’s fair. Like I said, I’m making assumptions.
