Utf-8 and line endings are orthogonal issues. The problem is not that the files are not in utf-8, but that windows and Linux don't agree on what character means line-end.
You will run into problems shipping unmodified windows line endings to a Linux box. Luckily the answer is git. This can be configured to automagically do the conversions.
