 If you have a theme, like twentyseventeen, that for whatever reason has
 `CRLF` newlines in its files, the Theme Editor will change the file format
 to regular unix newlines when saving.

 This creates confusing diffs, since by default `diff` does *not* ignore
 the newline characters. You can work around that with `diff --strip-
 trailing-cr`, but it's a rather obscure bit of trivia, even if you "know
 enough" to be using `diff`.

 I think the Theme Editor shouldn't change the file newline format of the
 edited files.
