repository. To control what line ending style is used in the working
directory, use the `eol` attribute for a single file and the
`core.eol` configuration variable for all text files.
+Note that `core.autocrlf` overrides `core.eol`
Set::
Set to string value "auto"::
When `text` is set to "auto", the path is marked for automatic
- end-of-line normalization. If Git decides that the content is
- text, its line endings are normalized to LF on checkin.
+ end-of-line conversion. If Git decides that the content is
+ text, its line endings are converted to LF on checkin.
+ When the file has been commited with CRLF, no conversion is done.
Unspecified::

content checks, effectively setting the `text` attribute.
Set to string value "crlf"::
regardless of their content.
