Re: use "their" block in TortoiseMerge

Thanks, this is correct. When I turned off ignoring line breaks, I
went from 0 conflicts to 434 conflicts. I'm wondering, how can I deal
with this effectively? The other developers are working on either Mac
or Linux machines, but I'm working on a Windows machine, so we're
going to get lots of conflicts like this since the different operating
systems use different EOL characters. The result is that the entire
file is marked as a conflict. Do you know of a way to avoid this
issue?

Thanks a bunch for your help. You clearly spend a lot of time
answering these emails and I really appreciate it.
