[edk2-devel] [PATCH 1/1] BaseTools: convert diff.order to LF-only

Hi Mike,

I was thinking (for post-conversion) we may end up needing something
like
  .git*  text eol=lf
in our gitattributes file (which itself unfortunately currently does
not follow that format).

If we were to rename BaseTools/Conf/diff.order and
BaseTools/Conf/gitattributes (to say .git-difforder and
.gitattributes) and update SetupGit.py to use the new names, that
would let us cover these (and future ones) with a single test.
