HTCondorWiki: Git From Windows

 
 Install Git for Windows from http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/. Note you just want to grab Git, not msysGit.
 
+**On Windows you must run:**
+
+{code}
+git config --global core.autocrlf false
+{endcode}
+
+Before you clone
+
+This stops git on Windows from changing the line endings. Without this
+as you clone onto a windows box files are modified when the clone
+is made. One of the most visible effects of this is patches failing
+
+
+
+
 When you clone a repository, you will want to use the following syntax:
    git clone ssh://tannenba@chevre.cs.wisc.edu/p/condor/repository/CONDOR_SRC.git
