Re-reading the man page that is exactly what is supposed to happen. Set to string value "crlf" This setting forces git to normalize line endings for this file on checkin and convert them to CRLF when the file is checked out.
This would have been a good option for a new project where crlf could have been forced on linux/macOS which is where the original issues came from but since we already have all our files in crlf format I think I'll just leave it alone and file this away for "next time."
