I'm using grunt-dom-munger for extracting each value for a certain html attribute throughout my templates. I'm doing this using a callback function which only uses jQuery to read the attribute and writes to a grunt configuration attribute (almost what options.read does, but not exactly).
I'm expecting the files to remain untouched since I'm only reading from them, but it looks like grunt-dom-munger modifies the files as it parses the file? Notably, all newlines added for readability and code formatting are normalised and removed. After running the task, my working directory shows up as modified for all html templates I have, which is not desirable.
Would it be possible to somehow disable this formatting/modification of files when only reading from them?
