  I am the maintainer of this project.  I know that this project needs 
  crlf conversion, because it is a cross-platform project.  
  Therefore, I want to force crlf conversion for this specific 
  project, even if the user did not configure core.autocrlf=input on 
  Unix.

I suspect that most problems with crlf is caused by Windows users who 
have core.autocrlf=false for whatever reason (I suspect without a good 
reason in most cases).

Almost correct.  It is _unset_!  And it should be perfectly valid for 
users not having to set anything there.

But perhaps having core.autocrlf=input as default on Unix and Mac will 
be better than the current core.autocrlf=false.

Have you read Junio's reply?  If so, how can you suggest any change for 
Unix and Mac?
