Description

When transfering a perl script from a Windows machine to a Unix machine, the line endings are preserved. I found this http://stackoverflow.com/a/5958926 for fixing the line endings when archiving jars or wars, but I can't seem to apply a similar method to the put or get ssh commands.

From a windows machine with git config autocrlf==auto

// Paste the snippet of script or logs
put from: files("$commandDir/brExecute.pl"), into: 'bin/'

then on the remote machine:

~$ brExecute.pl MyJob MyFile.xlsx
-bash: /home/user/bin/brExecute.pl: /usr/bin/perl^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

Research direction

Start by tracing the put and get SSH command paths used by the Groovy DSL; the issue provides a brExecute.pl example and the resulting /usr/bin/perl^M error. Define completion as a way to identify text transfers and normalize line endings without changing binary transfers, then verify the example on a Unix target.
