Edit tool messes with whitespace / line endings in Windows

[twoloox-rao]

Description

System:

• Windows 11 with Powershell and Git Bash
• Opencode v1.0.207
• CRLF line endings per default

Editing files with Opencode always messes with whitespace and line endings in files in Windows.

I understand that Opencode uses Git Bash by default, which potentially might be the cause of the issue. Unix line endings are LF, whereas windows/dos uses CRLF.

set core.autocrlf=false , other git bash issues are fixed in #6763

In case core.autocrlf=false is not possible due to team policies or whatever, I just asked my models to build me new tools in opencode crlf-write and crlf-edit after asking it to check for issues with the native tools in my win11 setup. The I disabled the native tools and enabled the new ones. Works well for me.
