Re: CTRL-M and CTRL-J characters in files

But, isn't that option only about "checkouts", what about check-ins???? I
can't locate any poption specific to that.

Thanks!!!

> The CVS client automatically handles the differences between Windows and
UNIX line endings by converting the files when you do the checkout or update
(or commit, or...).  So, as unintuitive as it sounds, uncheck this option.
Then you'll get the Windows line endings without those being imported into
the repository.  To cleanup your current problem, I'd sugest have your Linux
guys check out the files, run them through dos2unix until the files are
cleaned up, check them in, and then you need to do an update or checkout
without that box checked.
