I am using git on Cygwin. 

Today I figured out that this is .gitattributes file which is messing the 
stuff. .gitattributes contains only 
* text = auto

After removing the file - problem was gone.

But I still wonder why? Because the both git-scm book and github tutorial 
on lineendings told that .gitattributes should solve my problem.
