Windows:

  • Install the eGit plugin for Eclipse: Git - http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates
    • Once you have fetched a project, go to the project's .git dir and edit the config file to set autocrlf = true.
  • Install Git for windows: http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/ - used for pulling updates from remote server
    • Select the Windows option for linefeeds - autocrlf = true. This data is also stored in your git install dir/etc/gitconfig
