Get rid of "fatal: CRLF would be replaced by LF in [file]"

#git

This will get rid of one of my least favorite git-related error messages:

Install dos2unix

brew install dos2unix 
-- OR --
apt-get install dos2unix

Change line endings on files recursively 

find  /core/sites/all/modules -type f -exec dos2unix {} +
#git

Thank you, the recursive conversion spared me many minutes of drudgery and potential misses!

If you use the fish shell, run dos2unix ** from the top level of your project and it will recursively convert all files (except for hidden files).
