I have the impression that a problem just like this will arise again, 
just not with corelf, but with another setting that the admin might 
want to set per default in git-init, but the user might want to 
override.
My patch does not set the default in git-init, but only stores the
current choice of autocrlf in the repository's config.  autocrlf is
special because it cannot be easily changed after the initial checkout.
But basically all clean/smudge filters have exactly the same problem!  And 
core.ignorecase, too!

There must be a way to do it elegantly, without catering just for 
autocrlf.

Ciao,
