The branding checker failed all 29 of its sites on Windows while passing on the
Linux CI runner. Nothing had drifted. Git for Windows installs with
core.autocrlf=true, which checked tools/branding-sites.tsv out as CRLF, and the
checker reads that table with `read` - so every row's last field, the pattern,
gained a trailing \r and matched nothing. Only *.sh was pinned to LF, which is
why the scripts were fine and their data was not.
Set the policy in the repository rather than trusting each machine:
* text=auto eol=lf LF in the repo and every working tree, every OS
*.sh text eol=lf kept explicit: a CRLF shebang is a hard failure
*.bat/*.cmd eol=crlf the one exception; cmd.exe misparses LF batch files
An attribute beats core.autocrlf, so a fresh clone gets LF however its machine
is configured. Verified in a throwaway repo: under autocrlf=true a text file
checks out LF and a .bat checks out CRLF.
No blob changes. Every committed blob was already LF (git ls-files --eol shows
i/lf throughout) and `git add --renormalize .` stages nothing but this file.
The working tree was re-checked-out to match: 25 files CRLF -> LF, deploy.bat
LF -> CRLF. Checker 40 passed / 0 failed, build clean, 20 tests pass.
