Per default, CRLF conversion is disabled in msysgit.
That's interesting, as core.autocrlf was invented _specifically_
for use on Windows.
My take on this is that is was invented for cross-platform projects.
But if you have a Windows-only project it does not make sense to
convert line endings. Only if you plan to work on multiple
platforms, line ending conversion makes sense. The most
conservative choice is to leave content unmodified. This is true
for Windows, as it is for Unix. Therefore, msysgit does not
modify your content unless requested otherwise.
