I finally tracked down what upstream project these packages come from.
I don't use Windows very often and the MSYS2, MinGW, msysgit, & Cygwin
project history and overlap is *complicated* to say the least.
It seems the Git-for-Windows userland comes from both MSYS2 and MinGW
[1]. sed and awk come from MSYS2 and the carriage return conversion is
indeed documented [2].

[2] https://www.msys2.org/wiki/How-does-MSYS2-differ-from-Cygwin/#runtime
It looks like the auto-CR conversion is well-tread, and well-flamed,
territory. I'd prefer not to reignite that but I filed an issue to start
a discussion. That issue also details the history behind this behavior
for anyone interested:
