online editing adds CRs

[tillmo]

when I edit and existing ontology and just insert a space, a CR gets added at each line. As a consequence, in the diff, each line is marked as changed. See e.g. https://ontohub.org/repositories/essli_2016/fdf32bd4f241662ba7baaa59de12b6c269b16957/diff

@eugenk I'm not sure how to implement this the easy way. We include codemirror as a rails gem, so I can't just apply the patch that is linked there. I could fork codemirror-rails though.

Can't you simply add the option in app/assets/javascripts/codemirror-custom.js.coffee:7-11?

Our version of codemirror does not support this yet. I'll try to update codemirror-rails, but it seems that our version comes from a stale repository. https://github.com/fixlr/codemirror-rails is much more up to date.

Then let's try the official repository. I don't even know why we used a non-official repo in the first place.

I created a branch for this, but it's not complete yet. After using \r\n as a line separator (it seems \n is now the default) for a file that uses \r\n, the whole file is printed in one line. I have not yet found out why this happens.
