I'm refering to the fact that the "crlf" section of
Documentation/gitattributes.txt mentions core.autocrlf,
which is in the opposite (reverse) direction as this new reference
I'm adding.

The crlf section has a much more thorough description of
the various knobs and settings and how they interact.  But
I just checked, and although the gitattributes crlf section
describes core.autocrlf in reasonable detail, it does not have an
actual link (reference?) to git-config or the core.autocrlf
section.  So the commit message isn't as clear as it could be.

Do I need to resubmit the patch, in order to rephrase the commit
message?
