@iSazonov are there existing test cases for all three line ending scenarios? |

Yes, I added new test. Oops... lost commit. |

Can we get a good project wide reformatting done right after release? So many times I'm just following the ugly formatting around the code and then have to point that out in reviews as to why my code looks weird or doesn't follow the conventions.

I ran the Roslyn code format tool on the code base before we went public - it didn't fix stuff like this, but we should run it again.

Maybe just after RTM take two formatting weeks to push as many formatting PRs as we can starting with Roslyn code format tool and continue with manual formatting.

If there are two newlines, won't this skip the second?
A better pattern might be to change IsNewLine to return a string ("\n", "\r", or "\r\n") or null, and if the newline must be appended, append the result. There should be no need for SkipNewLine.

I don't know about skipping empty lines. Formally RFC4180 don't allow empty lines. Although practically it may make sense.
I thought about the pattern ( IsNewLine to return a string ) and decided to begin with SkipNewLine() as seems more readable. Now I'm going to implement IsNewLine(out newLine).

I test with Windows PowerShell - we keep its behaviour and 8000 ignore empty lines.
Microsoft Excel imports empty lines as empty rows. We should discuss this in new Issue if we want because it is a breaking change.
Fix #3692.
Fix description
After the fix Import-Csv support CR (\r), LF (\n), CRLF (\r\n) as line delimiters.
