[Numpy-discussion] curious about how people would feel about moving to github

[Friedrich Romstedt]

I just want to say that I used Git on Windows without any problem
using a minGW built Git, i.e. msysgit:

http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/downloads/list

The only problem I see is that with CR / CRLF / LF.  When one installs
msysgit, one can choose what procedure to take - to commit to the repo
with windows or unix line endings.  I made the mistake and chose
windows line endings, and now all my Git repos have dos format ...
pity since I switched to Mac now: my git now wants to commit with
another ending format, and everything has to be updated - I wonder
whether there is some possibility to revert this virtual-nothing
change after committing? - But this is a mess easily avoidable by the
virtual instruction "Configure your git to commit unix endings!"

One more thing, iirc msysgit requires that no mingw is installed
already - but when you have mingw you can compile git yourself anyway,
or am I wrong?
