In a serious case of craniorectal immersion, the Thunderbird developers
have started using \r\n line endings on saved emails:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=503271
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=507530

It would be nice if git-am could handle this case automatically.

Perhaps

    $ dos2unix *.eml | git am

I didn't try it, but would "git am" with "apply.whitespace" and 
"core.whitespace" set in some reasonable manner help? Not "automatic", but 
may help if dos2unix isn't available for some reason.
