I would spell the first "in" or "idx" (for "index"), not "ca" (for
"cache"). I think we avoid talking about "the cache" these days even
though the doc sometimes says "cached in the index" (i.e. use "cache" as
a verb, not a noun).

Good point, I'd prefer "idx" over ca", too.
However, the commit message says "to check if text files are stored normalized in the *repository*", yet the output refers to the index / cache. Is there a (potential) difference between line endings in the index and repo? AFAIK there is not. Any I find it a bit confusing to refer to the index where, as e.g. for a freshly cloned repo the index should be empty, yet you do have specific line endings in the repo.
Long story short, how about consistently talking about line endings in the repo, and also using "repo" instead of "ca" here?
