[Libcdio-devel] [PATCH] add .gitattributes and enforce LF on .ac/.am/.sh

[Pete Batard]

This is another patch that is required for MinGW.

Currently, running autogen.sh with a default MinGW install will break 
when if the git repo was fetched using TortoiseGit/msys-git on Windows 
as it defaults to converting the .ac/.am/.sh to CRLF.
Autoconf appears to have issues handling CRLF when strings are broken on 
multiple lines, etc.

Right now, only the .ac seems to require LF, but I think it's probably a 
good thing to enforce LF for all of .ac/.am/.sh as no system should 
require those to be CRLF. For the record, this is what we use in another 
project (libusb) that supports Linux/OSX/Windows.

Regards,

/Pete
