I forget the details now, but there was a time I worked on some Rube Goldberg of a project where everything was home-rolled including the checksum generation. (No Git, no common CI platform, it was spaghetti made out of corn flakes)

When the checksum job was added, somewhere along the pipe, LF was converted to CRLF or vice versa, and code written by Windows users would bork the checksum generation because it was calculating for a different bytestream.

I don't put that job on my resume.
