Walkthrough

A .gitattributes configuration file is introduced to standardize line endings across the repository, enforcing LF (Unix-style) line endings for all text files using the * text=auto eol=lf rule.

1-2: Consider expanding the configuration to explicitly exclude binary files.

The current rule * text=auto eol=lf is broad and applies to all files, including potential binary files. While text=auto provides some safety by detecting binary content, a more defensive approach would explicitly exclude or define binary file patterns to prevent unintended consequences.

Common improvements:

• Add explicit binary file patterns (images, archives, compiled objects, etc.)
• Clarify handling of vendored dependencies or auto-generated files
• Test the change on an existing repository to verify it doesn't cause unexpected file modifications

For example:

* text=auto eol=lf

# Binary files
*.png binary
*.jpg binary
*.gif binary
*.zip binary
*.jar binary

Additionally, if Windows developers are on the team, consider documenting any setup steps (e.g., git config core.safecrlf warn) to avoid conflicts during the transition.

1-2: Good practice to enforce consistent line endings across the repository.

Standardizing on LF line endings is a solid practice for projects, especially those targeting Unix/Linux deployments. The .gitattributes rule is syntactically correct.
