Such a smudge filter would break when core.eol=lf, but you're suggesting that someone might be using a picky smudge filter and has set core.eol=crlf to make sure it gets the line endings it expects?

That's a very good catch.  I'll add a test so that the optimization is only done if filter is NULL.
