Subject: git cat-file blob does not convert crlf
Date: Thu, 27 Nov 2008 01:34:56 +0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081127013456.6117@qkholland.gmail.com> (raw)

I think git is buggy.
I wanted to discard the changes I made to my file by checking out a copy from the last commit, so I said
% git cat-file blob HEAD:my-file >my-file
But this does not respect core.autocrlf and the file becomes one long line.
Also it feels stupid that I have to say my-file twice at the command prompt.
