Github Desktop "warning: LF will be replaced by CRLF"

Question

Using Github Desktop, I create a new repository. I then opened Unity Hub and created a new project inside that repository (using the Git Ignore "Unity" preset), made a few changes to the scene, and attempted to make an initial commit to master using Github desktop, and I get the error (repeated for what appears to be every file in the project):

 warning: LF will be replaced by CRLF in DeleteMeProject/Assets/Scenes.meta.
 The file will have its original line endings in your working directory

I did some reading on line endings, and tried some git commands suggested here using Repository > Open Repository in Command Prompt, no luck.

Screenshot of the error: alt text Any ideas?

I figured it out. Because my .gitignore was in a folder (that was created when I created the repo) BESIDE the Unity project folder, I needed to modify the paths in the .gitignore to reflect this so it knew where to look. alt text

Paste the below code

[core] autocrlf = false [filter "lfs"] required = true clean = git-lfs clean -- %f smudge = git-lfs smudge -- %f process = git-lfs filter-process
