The docs state that 'rows' defaults to 1, and it did until the prop fallback refactor in 7638301 dropped the final default. Since then a multiline TextInput without 'rows' or 'numberOfLines' renders a textarea with no 'rows' attribute, so browsers apply their default of 2 rows. # Conflicts: # packages/react-native-web/src/exports/TextInput/index.js

The docs for
TextInputsayrowsdefaults to1, and it did:numberOfLinesdefaulted to1until 6795738 moved the default ontorows, and 7638301 then removed it fromrowsto letnumberOfLinesact as a fallback, leaving no final default. Since 0.19 amultilineinput withoutrows/numberOfLinesrenders a<textarea>with norowsattribute, so browsers apply their own default of 2 rows, and a multiline input starts two lines tall on web while it starts one line tall on iOS and Android.The fix restores the final fallback to
1in therows ?? numberOfLines ?? 1chain. A test renders<TextInput multiline />and checksrows="1".npm run unit,lintandformatpass for the package;flowcould not be run locally (flow-bin has no arm64 build), so relying on CI for it.
