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?
