When I commit a php file to github I get the message “No newline at end of file”.
It’s just a warning and I remember, that for any reason it is good to have a newline at the end of a file.
But why? Is it a remnant of long gone times, does it still have advantages or is it even required in php? If yes, for what reason?
It’s not required by PHP, but it can cause problems with some diff tools. The warning is a just a warning and can be ignored if desired, but I would recommend following convention and having the last character be a newline.
