That will only work until folks start re-editing the files with their
random win/unix editors and change the endings again. If you want it to
stay pure forever I think we need .gitattributes to define file types
by extension as "text" so that git normalizes them, and then let users
set their core.eol to whatever they prefer for text files in their
working tree. Its probably more complicated than that but you see what
I'm getting at...
