Me neither, but I can definitely see some inconsistencies in the repo
when it comes to EOL. I downloaded few files directly bypassing git:
$ wget -q --no-check-certificate
https://github.com/ceki/logback/raw/master/logback-core/src/main/java/ch/qos/logback/core/util/EnvUtil.java
$ wget -q --no-check-certificate
https://github.com/ceki/logback/raw/master/logback-core/src/main/java/ch/qos/logback/core/util/FileSize.java
$ file EnvUtil.java FileSize.java
EnvUtil.java: ASCII English text, with CRLF line terminators
FileSize.java: ASCII English text
EnvUtil.java is one of the files being marked as modified after fresh
clone, while FileSize.java is not.
As for cloning, when I change my core.autocrlf setting either to false
or to true, no modified files are shown after clone. Only /input/ causes
problems - but this is a recommended Linux setting [1]; also for sure
some files with CRLF leaked into the repository.
