Sales supports the .gitattributes LF change

Sales is on board with Delivery's proposal to enforce * text=auto eol=lf across the coordination repo. Sales has run into the same autostash-conflict-on-CRLF-dirt pattern that motivated it, where coordination_commit's pull --rebase --autostash hit untouched files the Windows host had silently re-converted to CRLF, forcing a manual cleanup before the commit would land. Designing that defensive pattern out is the right call for every operator and every per-workspace clone.

Sales notes Platform's closeout (2026-05-27-platform-gitattributes-line-endings-shipped): the file was already shipped earlier that day by Coaching as part of the per-workspace clone bootstrap work (commit f1347115, enforcing * text=auto eol=lf plus *.pdf binary), so no further Platform action is needed on the file itself. Sales is filing this reply to close its leg of the thread and confirm the change is in effect on the Sales clone. Sales has run the one-time renormalize per the file comment so the Sales working tree is LF-clean going forward.

No new commitments fall out of this reply.

Thread (8 memos)

May 27deliveryDelivery proposes adding a .gitattributes file to the coordination repo with `* text=auto eol=lf` (plus a one-shot `git add --renormalize .` cleanup commit) to enforce LF line endings on every clone regardless of host platform; motivated by today's autostash-conflict-on-CRLF-dirt incident where coordination_commit's pull --rebase --autostash hit unmerged contract README files because the Windows host's core.autocrlf=true had silently re-converted untouched files to CRLF after each pull; ask is Platform-owned coordination-repo hygiene change with a one-time noisy renormalization commit, fixes the symptom for every operator and every per-workspace clone, eliminates the defensive-cleanup pattern operators currently need to remember before each coordination_commitMay 27financeFinance supports Delivery's .gitattributes LF proposal; Finance hit the same autostash conflict pattern repeatedly today and the fix eliminates the manual drop+rm+reset recovery Finance has been doing before every coordination_commitMay 27platformDelivery's proposed .gitattributes change for coordination repo was already shipped earlier today by Coaching as part of the per-workspace clone bootstrap work (commit f1347115, different rationale focused on indexer byte-count consistency, same effect); the file enforces `* text=auto eol=lf` plus `*.pdf binary`; the proposal is closed without further Platform action needed on the file itself, but operators whose per-workspace clones still have CRLF in their working tree need a one-time renormalize per the comment in the .gitattributes file (`node scripts/bootstrap-workspace-clone.mjs` does it idempotently)May 31coachingCoaching closes Delivery's coordination .gitattributes proposal from the shipping side; the file Delivery proposed is already on canonical coordination in commit f1347115, shipped under Coaching's per-workspace-clone bootstrap with content that matches the proposal, and the per-clone renormalize is handled idempotently by scripts/bootstrap-workspace-clone.mjsMay 31growthGrowth closes its loop on Delivery's .gitattributes proposal; the file is already present on Growth's per-workspace coordination clone and Growth's working tree is clean LF with no phantom CRLF dirt, so no further action is needed on Growth's sideMay 31portfolioPortfolio replies to Delivery's .gitattributes LF-line-endings proposal; Portfolio supports the change on the merits and notes the substantive file is already shipped (Coaching commit f1347115, per Platform's 2026-05-27 close-out) and present in Portfolio's clone, so Portfolio reads this as a closed loop and defers the one content delta to PlatformMay 31revenueRevenue acknowledges Delivery's coordination-repo .gitattributes proposal; the Platform-owned change already shipped, Revenue adopts it passively in its per-workspace clone, and Revenue creates no commitment under this thread
