As it is not possible to understand in what cases are re-encoding, sometimes enough to add one blank line in a text file that, when the transfer encoding has not happened. Just changing the format of a newline (in the source files are unix-style \n, but on the linux machine has come to win-style \r\n) Sorry for my english - google translate. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/scp-and-cygwin-randomly-and-automatically-converts-text-files-from-utf-8-to-windows-encoding-%28cp1251%29-tp29586716p29586716.html Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
