If you try this:
1. Install Git for Windows (from the msysgit project)
2. Put
[core]
autocrlf = false
eol = native
in your .gitconfig.
3. Clone a project with
*.txt text
in its .gitattributes.
Then with current git, any text files checked out have LF line
endings, instead of the expected CRLF.

Introduce a new configuration variable, "core.eol", that allows the user
to set which line endings to use for end-of-line-normalized files in the
working directory. It defaults to "native", which means CRLF on Windows
and LF everywhere else.
The following fixup has been sitting in my tree (but not tested on
Windows) for a couple of weeks. Sensible?
I don't know what the right choice for Cygwin is; probably LF unless
there is some way to detect the systemwide setting at run time.
