This (and crlf-conversion, for that matter) strikes me as something best
handled outside of git core, such as through checkout/commit hooks. Perhaps
examples of such hooks could be provided and adapted by each project and
user as that user/project sees fit for their specific choice of repository
format and development environment.
Given that git already chose not to screw around with encodings or define
a canonical encoding for the on-disk format (it's just a string of bytes),
it would be consistent and reasonable to not mess with these other things,
too.
