Re: make cvs text agnostic?

hi all,

re this conversation of file types -- why autodetect them, isn't that the
whole point
of a file type, given in every file's extension? heuristic detection of
binariness -- yuck!

a mechanism already exists to tell with this problem -- why don't people
just make a whopper of a cvswrappers file and then be done with it?

that's what we've got running in our shop, and i haven't typed a "-kb" since
i don't know when...
