From: Torsten Bögershausen <tboegi@xxxxxx> Working with a repo that used to be all CRLF. At some point it was changed to all LF, with `text=auto` in .gitattributes. Trying to cherry-pick a commit from before the switchover fails: $ git cherry-pick -Xrenormalize <commit> fatal: CRLF would be replaced by LF in [path] Commit 65237284 "unify the "auto" handling of CRLF" introduced a regression: Whenever crlf_action is CRLF_TEXT_XXX and not CRLF_AUTO_XXX, SAFE_CRLF_RENORMALIZE was feed into check_safe_crlf(). This is wrong because here everything else than SAFE_CRLF_WARN is treated as SAFE_CRLF_FAIL. Call check_safe_crlf() only if checksafe is SAFE_CRLF_WARN or SAFE_CRLF_FAIL.
