Subject: bug#1039: 23.0.60; emacs forgets EOL convention after revert-buffer
Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2009 13:20:49 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <tl7r62m68v2.fsf@m17n.org> (raw)
> If you load a file with DOS line endings, and revert it with M-x
> revert-buffer, emacs forgets the used EOL convention and will use
> Unix line endings when writing the file.
This problem is already fixed.

This is already fixed too.
But, the problem is the case that you load "hello" by explicitly
specifying dos coding system, or you once save the file by dos coding
sytem before reverting. In this case, Emacs respects your
specification, and thus revert-buffer loads the file as dos coding
system, which results in seeing many CR charaters in the above case.
We think this behaviour is not a bug but a feature.
