No. What would it help?
You may later decide that you want to check out your project on Windows.
In this case your repository should not contain CRLF.  autocrlf=input
ensures this.
But under Unix, it would never do that *anyway*, unless the file for some 
reason really needs it (which I cannot imagine, but I've never seen 
anything so craptastically stupid that some crazy person hasn't done it)

So your argument is bogus.
