llvm dev - Nov 2004 - [LLVMdev] Small patch for visual studio project files

I moved my own llvm tree out of the way and tried to get a fresh copy 
from cvs and build everything from scratch... and it worked! apart from 
one little problem, a file was moved and should be removed from the 
project files -- here is a patch.

There is a small problem with submitting patches for the .vcproj files - 
VS saves them with CRLF line endings but the CVS versions appear to have 
only LF (Unix style). This causes every line to differ! I used 'tr -d 
\r' this time, but it will be a bit painful to have to do this every 
time a project file is modified... Any suggestions?

There are some changes which should be applied to all project files, 
namely getting rid of the __STDC_LIMIT_MACROS preprocessor define and 
disabling the negating unsigned number warning... Because of the line 
ending problem it will have to wait until something more important 
forces a check in of the project files.

Are you sure your CVS is configured correctly?  On Windows, CVS
automatically converts between LF and CR/LF line endings.  I sent a
patch to remove all CRs from the repository because when I checked out
the files on Windows, every line had two CRs and a single LF.  When VS
saved a modified project file, the extra CR went away, causing every
line to diff.

I'm using the cygwin cvs which doesn't add any CR when checking out.. so
I'm getting the version with only LF and when VS saves a modified 
project file every line diffs... I don't see any option to cvs to tell 
it how to handle line endings, so I don't know how to fix this.
