Linebreaks are just for convenience, end of the year clean-up ;-)
I see... well personally the line breaks do not bother me because i never had a problem with that, as far as I could remember. Maybe its different for others? Generally speaking, I’m against ”change every line” kind of changes, because they mess a bit with history and make ”git blame” a little less convenient to work with. But if it makes things more convenient for someone out there, I’m all for it.
I suspect the effort to reformat .tex files to a particular line length is futile. The TeX editors that I tried simply put each paragraph on a very long line. The easy and permanent solution to that behavior is to just accept it :-)

I'm also against these, they really clutter up the view of the repo and the blame, etc.
Merged! Better have it over with.
OK, I reverted this. The line ending changes caused merge conflicts with other PR's. It is something that could be revisited once there are no big PR's in progress.
It might not be practical to accept the line end changes. The other changes are fine.
Is there a practical value for you to make these changes? For me personally it is not a problem if linebreaks are not consistent between files. It seems to work fine anyway.
