Visual Basic 6 and LF, forcing to git to use CRLF

When working with VB6 and uploading to GitHub, modify the .gitattributes file to look like the below:

# Default behaviour
* text=auto
# VB6 source files must stay CRLF
*.bas text eol=crlf
*.cls text eol=crlf
*.frm text eol=crlf
*.vbp text eol=crlf
*.vbg text eol=crlf
*.ctl text eol=crlf
*.dsr text eol=crlf
*.txt text eol=crlf
# VB6 binary companion files
*.frx binary
*.res binary
*.exe binary
*.ocx binary
*.dll binary

If doing retrospectively, then we should do the following:

git add --renormalize .

git commit -m "Fix line endings for VB6"

git add --renormalize .

git commit -m "Renormalize line endings"

git reset --hard

The following is a check to see if the files are LF or LFCR;

git ls-files --eol
