When building a project, could be useful to force linux line endings to detect early problems in multi platform teams.
Forcing linux line endings in development all through out the a project sounds to me like a nice step forward like when I switched to utf-8 :)
If you are using git, you could let git solve it.
Otherwise, grunt-beautify has an option endOfLineCharacters. But that module seems dead.
"grunt" pays attention to platform specific line feed.
You can force grunt to use on every platform the same line feed char. Do this at top of your grunt file:
// overwrite platform specific setting get always unix like line end
grunt.util.linefeed = '\n';
That option is documented here:
Use .editorconfig files
These make it really easy to set cross-platform line endings in a consistent manner across the team without the need for an additional build step. They are enforced any time you save a file.
Here's an example file which also uses spaces as tabs
# editorconfig.org
root = true
[*]
indent_style = space
indent_size = 4
end_of_line = lf
charset = utf-8
trim_trailing_whitespace = true
insert_final_newline = true
[*.md]
trim_trailing_whitespace = false
