Local 7.0.2+6395 reformats line feeds in wp-config.php when starting a site

Bug Summary

On Windows – after updating to 7.0.2+6395, starting a site causes a reformatting of line feeds in wp-config.php. This results in every line break becoming 2 line breaks.

For those using Git, this also causes a divergence from the authoritative copy in the repo. This forces developers to reset their local copy every time they start a site in Local.

While this has no functional impact, it does cause unnecessary versioning churn and general FUD.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Obtain the latest copy of your wp-config.php source, whether via Git or otherwise.
  2. Open wp-config.php in your editor of choice. Observe there are no unintended double line feeds.
  3. Update to Local 7.0.2+6395
  4. Start the relevant site in Local.
  5. Re-open wp-config.php in your editor, and observe that now all line feeds have doubled.
