One of my users does does all his editing on Windows, copies
the file to his Unix box and runs it there. What this means
is that he needs Perforce to leave the EOL character alone.
What happens now is that Perforce wants to change the line
endings to DOS
Tell him to set his client's line end option to "unix" (I'm
betting it's set to "win" or "share"). We edit unix files
from Windows all the time and only have a problem when our
clients are not set to "unix". (If the file was saved with
DOS line endings, it won't alter them, he'll need to fix the
file and resubmit it.) -Wm
Caveat: Our server is on Unix - I don't know if it will make a difference
if your server is
on Windows or not.
