Ensures that all files that Git considers to be text will have
normalized (LF) line endings in the repository. When core.eol is set to
native (which is the default), Git will convert the line endings of
normalized files in your working directory back to your platform's
native line ending.

This gets FileDialog updated and working on Windows. It also
removes removes the "wx3" build configurations and makes the default
Debug and Release builds wx3-only.
Still need to get VSTs updated.
These are mostly for getting it to build on Linux, but I've
also created new configs in Visual Studio to make it easier
to switch between wx2 and wx3.
For Linux, you have to tell configure where to find the wx3
version of the wx-config script and, since some distros build
wxWidgets v3 against GTK+ v3, you may also need to enable
gtk3 with something like:
./configure --enable-gtk3 WX_CONFIG=/usr/bin/wx-config-3.0
On Windows, I've added "wx3-Debug" and "wx3-Release" to the
existing "Debug" and "Release" configurations.
They depend on you having your WXWIN environment variable
pointing to your wx2 directory and a new WXWIN3 environment
variable pointing to your wx3 directory. For instance, I
have:
WXWIN=C:\Users\yam\Documents\wxWidgets-2.8.13
WXWIN3=C:\Users\yam\Documents\wxWidgets-3.0.2
Doing this allows you to switch freely among the 4 configurations
without having to get out of Visual Studio and monkey around with
the environment.
The project files will also add the location of the wxWidgets DLLs
to the PATH when running Audacity from within Visual Studio. They
add %WXWIN%\lib\vc_dll or %WXWIN3%\lib\vc_dll at the beginning
of the PATH variable as appropriate.
I expect that once we convert to wx3 we'll just drop back down to
the normal Debug and Release configurations, but this should make
switching between wx2 and wx3 much easier during the transition.
With the move to VS2013, we no longer need the DirectX SDK
and, therefore, we can always enable DirectX support.
If an individual user doesn't want DirectX support, they can
always disable it for their private copy. But, I believe we
will always release with DX support, so it is now on always.
For those that have the DX SDK installed just for building
Audacity, you may now remove it and you should still get
DX support in Audacity.
From what I can tell, the only thing that is "lost" because of
this is the possibility of using C++AMP. Not really an issue.
And we don't have to provide different runtimes for XP and
win7+. They all use the same redistributable package.
Renamed the VS2008 solution instead of removing it
to give people time to get VS2013 installed.
Will remove the VS2008 solution and project files
after a while.
This was NOT just a straightforward conversion. It took days to
figure out why projects kept building over and over again, so
committing is the best way for people to kick the tires.
These are completely separate from the VS2008 project files, so
they do not affect current build process.
