depending on their diff settings, or the web interface they use, it may not show until they actually look at a hex editor. The point of this patch is not to lambast developers or interfere with their local setups; it's to get the line-ending issues out of the way for good so they can focus on what they do best.

And, given what I quoted above, it's not about faith - it's about historical evidence that this *is* a problem.
