Gemini CLI fixes Windows diff views by normalizing CRLF to LF in a2a-server
luisfelipe-alt · ghdev · 2026-07-25
Google’s Gemini CLI PR #28531 fixes a Windows bug in Gemini Code Assist’s side-by-side diff view, where generated edits appeared empty because CRLF line endings in local files did not match the LF line endings produced by the model.
What changed
- a2a-server now normalizes file content to LF before applying proposed replacements.
- The fix aligns the local agent backend with the core package’s EditTool behavior.
- A new unit test covers the CRLF normalization case, and the PR notes validation on Windows, Linux, and the monorepo test suite.
