The option --replace-breaks=false with file download does not work on comments for format "resx" (but does work for value)

[N7K4]

lokalise CLI v2.6.8

I am using a RESX translation file on a Windows OS

lokalise2 \
    --token "${LOKALISE_API_TOKEN}" \
    --project-id "${LOKALISE_PROJECT_ID}" \
    file download \
    --format "${DEFAULT_L10N_FORMAT}" \
    --replace-breaks=false \
    --plural-format "${DEFAULT_L10N_PLURAL_FORMAT}" \
    --all-platforms \
    --unzip-to "${PATH_L10N_FOLDER}" \
    --original-filenames=false \
    --keep-zip

with the option --replace-breaks=false the value keeps it formats (TABs, NewLines) in the downloaded XML / Resx file.

An example entry in our resx file. With data.name as "key". The value has some new lines, same like comment.

...
<data name="DUMMY_HELLO_WORLD" xml:space="preserve">
    <value>hello world
    
Hello NewLine
    </value>
    <comment>
NET-0000
No-Screenshot

A dummy (test only).
    </comment>
</data
...

The upload does respect the TABs and NEWLINEs, so I can see the value and comment well formatted on WEB UI.

After a re-downlaod with file download and the use of --replace-breaks the value keeps formatted, BUT the comment is just a single line. Newlines will be just a kind of whitespace. So I will see a new line (in Windows \r\n) as two spaces.

We use the comment column for meta information.

• 1 line: Jira issue link
• 2 line: screenshot yes, no
• 3 line: empty
• 4 line: normale description / comment.
• 5 line if needed, description of ordered placeholders, like "Hello {0}" to define 0: "whom to great".

sadly after download from lokalise via CLI, we loose our format in comment column and can not use our tests and other automation

Same issue is still there in v3.0.1
