Hi all.
This is just a fix for something in the documentation that confused
me when playing around with git.
--- Comment: --------
Updated the Documentation/config.txt core.autocrlf configuration
setting documentation to note that this setting can be set at a
repository or file level by using the gitattributes configuration.

Diff is attached as a separate file.
Still have not figured out how to best send in patches (working on
Windows here) so this one is a manually sent mail and you will most
likely not be able to apply it automatically. :-(
I am also not sure whether there are perhaps any other documentation
copies that need to be updated for this. This was the only one I found
in the source tree.
Best regards,
Jurko Gospodnetić
