I have just started using git with windows. Each time I add a file I get this warning

warning: LF will be replaced by CRLF in main.cpp.
The file will have its original line endings in your working directory.

and it seems like the way to surpress this is

git config --global core.autocrlf true

and then I can add my file without warnings. But I could not find a permanent solution to this, so do I need to do git config --global core.autocrlf true each time before I do a git add ?? Is there a permanent way to solve this ?

Thanks in advance.

Look into modifying your `gitattributes` file. – Tim Biegeleisen Mar 06 '18 at 10:51
In what way is `git config --global core.autocrlf true` not permanent? Do you have something else changing the configuration back? – Mark Adelsberger Mar 06 '18 at 13:53
