So defaulting to (or asking) "autocrlf" at install time is probably 
the safest thing, and then people can edit their global .gitconfig to 
turn it off.

Indeed. A checkbox in the Windows installer (like Cygwin has) would be 
nice.

No.  There are different needs for different projects, and having 
different defaults just adds to the confusion.

I am no longer opposed to setting crlf=true by default for Git (although 
this does not necessarily hold true for msysGit, but that could be 
helped by explicitely unsetting crlf for the repositories we check out 
with the netinstaller).
