For instance, using 1d846b89ca3:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ cat -n gnu/packages/music.scm | grep -C2 2732
  2730            (add-after 'unpack 'patch-paths
  2731              (lambda* (#:key inputs #:allow-other-keys)
  2732                (substitute* 
"deps/juce/extras/Projucer/Source/ProjectSaving/\
  2733  jucer_ProjectExport_CodeBlocks.h"
  2734                  (("/usr/include/freetype2")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and I do not spot where the problem could come from.  But indeed,

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ git config --global core.autocrlf true

And for me, the escape issue is elsewhere:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ cat -n gnu/packages/terminals.scm | grep -C2 ' 601'

   603                                                 "ENV{DEVNAME}!=\"\", "
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Well, interesting! :-)

BTW, I agree with:

        > Ideally `guix pull` would ignore this setting (and possibly all user 
git
        > settings?)

and I’m even surprised that ~/.gitconfig is read by “guix pull”.  Ah?!

I do not know which libgit2 procedure via guile-git reads ~/.gitconfig;
somehow:

    openable-repository? relies on git_repository_open_ext

    -> obtain_config_and_set_oid_type
    -> git_repository_config_snapshot
    -> git_repository_config__weakptr

      and there I guess some GIT_CONFIG_FILENAME_* variables is read.

Well, that’s annoying.  I hope I’m missing something.

Cheers,
simon
