Assuming that should have been false and then true for the setting of 
autocrlf.  I would say that
this code does not fully check for autocrlf=false.  For version 1 of the 
patch I did not look for
other tests that dis not include crlf in their name that had tests for 
changing autocrlf.

It does cause the subsequent tests to not be tested in autocrlf=true.  
However I have verified that the sequence:

git config core.autocrlf false && git reset --hard

Does not do what you might expect.  A "touch file1" can cause "git diff" 
to start reporting a difference!

Patch set v2 out soon.
