Here is what I just did with "commit --amend" (there is no change
in the contents of the patch).
diff: --ignore-cr-at-eol
A new option --ignore-cr-at-eol tells the diff machinery to treat a
carriage-return at the end of a (complete) line as if it does not
exist.
Just like other "--ignore-*" options to ignore various kinds of
whitespace differences, this will help reviewing the real changes
you made without getting distracted by spurious CRLF<->LF conversion
made by your editor program.
