Portable metadata
Checks that reject tree shapes which work on one OS but break checkouts elsewhere.
Rule kinds in the Portable metadata family. Each rule below links to its own page with options, an example, and any auto-fix support.
| Rule | Description |
|---|---|
line_endings | Every line ending matches target: lf or crlf. |
no_case_conflicts | Flag paths that differ only by case (e.g. README.md + readme.md). |
no_illegal_windows_names | Reject path components that Windows cannot represent. |
no_symlinks | Flag tracked paths that are symbolic links. |
