On Windows system, git clone or git checkout on the repo turns LF line
endings to CRLF in the worktree.
This can happen due to many reasons like -
- git config --system core.autocrlf (set to true)
- git config --global core.autocrlf (set to true)
- git config --local core.autocrlf (set to true)
- git clone --config core.autocrlf=true ...
Adding gitattributes for the shims will not convert them to CRLF line
endings.
Also, there is a note[1] in test/README.md which says -
For the tests to run on Windows, be sure to clone Node.js source code
with the `autocrlf` git config flag set to true.
Reason for using build subsystem -
These shims are just copied in stage_package label of vcbuild.bat

This code previously assumed the default value was always printed to
the console by reg.exe as "(default)", but this is not true on
localized versions of Windows and can contain spaces.
