Code Files Mixed Line Endings

[SkyeHoefling]

Is there a recommended line endings in the DNN code base? Since we have added stylecop I am seeing just about every file I open up mixed line endings. Visual Studio is asking me to normalize this to resolve the errors. Do we have a strong stance on what we prefer such as CRLF which is the standard line ending on windows.

We should define a strong opinion on this and add it to the .editorconfig this will ensure the line endings are corrected for every file that is opened in a supported IDE. I might have missed something, but I didn't see this declared in either the editorconfig or stylecop settings.

It looks like the closest we have is CRLF specified in .gitattributes

Dnn.Platform/.gitattributes

Line 2 in 0bd8b22

* text=crlf

There doesn't appear to be a StyleCop rule for line endings, but some of the auto-fixes may have introduced inconsistent line endings.

Let's add crlf to the .editorconfig 👍
