Hi Johannes,

I have implemented this according to your algorithm. Now, I have to set
core.autocrlf to true for making the new test pass. Setting core.eol no
longer has an effect on the merge markers. Is this expected? (I haven't
set any attributes)

Clearly I don't have much experience with gitattributes and how they
interact with the core config settings :-\

Regards,
Beat
