Comment (by qui_gon_jim):

 I too have noticed this behaviour. Sometimes, after a website has gone
 live, our team may make quick small changes to the CSS using the inbuilt
 theme editor, rather than downloading the file and editing it.

 {{{
 /wp-admin/theme-editor.php?file=style.css
 }}}

 When I next download the CSS file, and open it in Notepad or Sublime2,
 every line has an extra \n after it which makes the file larger and harder
 to read. I have tested the editing in Windows Firefox 37.0.1 and Windows
 IE 11 and both of these cause the issue.

 Sometimes I just disable the file editor to stop others using it!

 {{{

 define('DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT', true);
 }}}
