Everytime he updates, I have to first check for diffs in his own code.


one of his modules uses CR line endings, which makes it look like every single line changed since the module I commit uses CR+LF.


So, I first have to save the module he edited, with CR+LF, to make sure the diff runs correct.


Same for any stray whitespace, which is why, in SciTE I have a pre-time save that strips whitespace from the end of lines =)


I can deal with it, but we were, someone was, asking for standards. I consider that to be a standard, and, to the point above, nicer when you have multiple people say, working in/on a library of functionality that is shared.


If it is local and solo then do whatever the heck you want!
