While specifying line endings for *.sh and *.patch files is a good start, this line ending issue can affect many other text-based files in a cross-platform project (e.g., Makefile, Dockerfile, source code files). To create a more robust and future-proof solution, it's better to set a default rule for all text files.

Using * text=auto eol=lf will automatically handle line endings for all files that Git detects as text, which is a common best practice for repositories with contributors on different operating systems.

# Normalize all text files to use LF line endings.
# This prevents cross-platform issues with files like scripts, Makefiles,
# and Dockerfiles when working in mixed OS environments.
