However, I fail to see how the similarity detection should be so decoupled from the application. IOW what good is it if two files are rated similar if the merge cannot handle the CRLF/LF differences properly? So two points here: since the merges are what you target, you definitely should mention that in the commit message. And you should make sure that all this trickery only kicks in when the merge has a chance to succeed.
