Of course it's possible, but will we also begin to fix other CS violations
in files? Also, in doing this, we'll /still/ keep a messy CVS with CR,
CRLF, LF, and files with multiple of those.
Also, forcing devs to fix these lineendings will fuck with CVS. It'll
assume all the lines have changed, which makes diff's horrible to read.
Consider comparing your current/local version, to a version that's been
fixed for line-endings. By default, it'd mark all lines as changed,
eventhough few may be really changed.
Dev-education would be the best way to go here, not forcing them upon the
files at some point.
