Unfortunately this option wouldn't be as flexible as Eyvind's current proposal.

What his method allows is to mark some files in a project as "these
should be the native EOL style" and others as "these should be left
alone."  Then each person can set a (usually global) config option
that states what the native EOL style should be.  Like core.autocrlf,
only it wouldn't affect projects without crlf attributes (like git.git
or linux.git) where CRLF translation is pretty much always wrong.
(And if one person disagrees that it's always wrong, well, he can
always set core.autocrlf for himeself.)

Have fun,

Avery
