By default the server leaves the '-k' mode blank for all files,

You can make the server use `crlf` attributes to set the '-k' modes
for files by setting the `gitcvs.usecrlfattr` config variable.
In this case, if `crlf` is explicitly unset ('-crlf'), then the

also linkgit:gitattributes[5] for more information about the `crlf`
attribute.
Alternatively, if `gitcvs.usecrlfattr` config is not enabled
or if the `crlf` attribute is unspecified for a filename, then
