This is a superset of the previous ignored globs. The existing entries are now categorised, and the following additional globs are ignored: - lessmsg.inc Automatically generated by distfiles make target - *.exe Executables on DOS, OS/2, and Windows systems - *.obj Object files for some DOS, OS/2, and Windows compilers - *.bak, *.log, *.tmp Backup, log, and temporary files
Shell scripts should always use LF line endings, even on platforms that typically use a different end-of-line sequence (e.g. CRLF on Windows). This commit ensures the files are checked-out with LF line endings even on platforms for which the default end-of-line sequence is different.
For authors which have committed to the repository under multiple identities, this instructs Git as to the canonical identity and ensures commits are attributed to that identity. Also useful with `git shortlog` when displaying a summary of Git authors and associated commit counts.
Appears to be a relic from when less supported pre-ANSI C and had to choose between `void *` and `char *`.
Another apparent relic from when less supported pre-ANSI C and supported K&R-compatible prototype macros.
Appears to be for planned but never implemented wide-character support. It's never enabled anywhere, and if it were it only enables some (now removed) upper/lower to/is macros. Even that's not true as those macros are gated by `HAVE_WCTYPE` (no `_H` suffix) which isn't defined.
