Re: [edk2-devel] [edk2-libc Patch 1/1] edk2-libc: add .gitattributes to ensure right line endings in .sh .bat

[Michael D Kinney]

+ Leif

.gitattributes is not used in other TianoCore repos.

This feature changes the line endings locally when checked out.

Instead, the edk2 repo uses a CI check like PatchCheck.py to make
sure files with specific extensions have the correct line endings
when they are checked in and files are checked out unmodified.

I know Leif has been evaluating some line ending changes to TianoCore
Repos.  Don't know if this direction is in alignment with those
ideas or not.

Re: [edk2-devel] [edk2-libc Patch 1/1] edk2-libc: add .gitattributes to ensure right line endings in .sh .bat

[Jayaprakash, N]

Thanks Mike.

Line endings have been a consistent problem creators for me for the .sh and .bat files while working on Python UEFI project.

At times I used to run dos2linux command to convert the .sh scripts line endings from \r\n format to \n format to fix the compilation issues on Linux.
So, thought of using the .gitattributes feature from github to normalize the line endings for these 2 types of text files.

Will wait to hear from Leif on the changes being evaluated for Tinocore repos on Line endings.

Regards,
JP

^ This is not a good look for any submission, but especially not one 
dealing with line endings. Please manually look at patches before 
sending them out.

Now, as for the suggestion: this isn't wrong, but can you explain what 
problem it is solving?

I had a look in edk2-libc and all the .sh files have LF line endings and 
all the .bat files have CRLF line endings.

Now, if we *did* want to do this, I would strongly prefer a patch to 
edk2/BaseTools/Conf/gitattributes, which is applied in any repo 
SetupGit.py has been executed in.

But ultimately I want to convert the repos completely to LF line endings 
except for where special cases exist (which *should* be described in 
[.]gitattributes) and then move to enable core.autocrlf.

Re: [edk2-devel] [edk2-libc Patch 1/1] edk2-libc: add .gitattributes to ensure right line endings in .sh .bat

[Jayaprakash, N]

Regarding the below comment from Lief.

Now, as for the suggestion: this isn't wrong, but can you explain what problem it is solving?

<<JP>> As a developer and also as a maintainer the lines endings have been a consistent problem as I have seen patches coming with mixed line endings some times it take quite a while to fix these simple line ending issues.
I want to start small through .gtiattributes usage for the .sh and .bat scripts to normalize the line endings to LF so that irrespective of the user environment the line endings are always stored as LF in git repo but presented to the users in LF or CRLF as per their environment. Thought of using this feature of github in a lower scale to make it easy for the developers and maintainers of the edk2-libc project. 

If there is a general alignment that this change need not go, then I will close the BZ as won't fix.

JP

I agree it's annoying, but if it takes a noticeable amount of time to 
fix, it sounds to me like you're manually editing things that tools can 
do for you. (Admittedly, git is one of those tools.) And as Mike says, 
there's the helper scripts and CI.

Like I said, there's nothing actually *wrong* about doing what you 
propose. It's more a question of how we maintain (or not) consistency 
between, and within, the repos.

Do we keep edk2-libc as a special thing on the side?
If so I guess it could keep its own .gitattributes.
If not, it should use the one in edk2/BaseTools.
If so, that affects all the repos.

If it affects all the repos, why specifically .sh and .bat?
Yes, it doesn't break the build if it sneaks into a .c file, or a .inf, 
but it breaks CI. Sometimes. So should we specify .c, .h, .inf, .dsc, 
.dec, .py, .vfr as well?

As it stands, I'd prefer to leave this alone until do the CRLF->LF 
conversion and can migrate to core.autocrlf=auto. At that point, I 
expect most of these mixups will go away. And if they don't, we could 
always revisit then.

I do intend to get back to the CRLF->LF conversion work once the shock 
from the Github-PR switch has settled.

Leif
