[postgis-devel] extras/tiger_geocoder/upgrade_geocoder.bat and CRLF

[John Harvey]

Hello folks,

For what it's worth, as an end user, I'd be happy with a transition to git.

I can think of one other option, although it's a little messier.  There
could be a CI job that detects and corrects these situations when they
occur.  I don't think it would be that painful to set up, although the
downside to such a thing is that it basically continues the back-and-forth
model that strk referenced.

It's worth noting that since this situation has occurred, it's causing some
of my builds that use the git repo to fail.  Currently, "git clone"
followed by "git checkout" does not work due to the famous "files would be
overwritten by checkout" error.  For now, I can get around it with "git
checkout --force", but it's worth noting that there could be other users
similarly affected.

Regards,
  -John
