Hi:

^_^

I did some test on the EOL behavior between official git and libgit2-based software(TortoiseGit). Then, I got that they have different EOL behavior.

The blob stored in repository is a text file with mixed EOLs. Even set core.autocrlf = true, official git checkout the file as it is(means still *mixed EOLs* there). But, libgit2 checkout it with *All CRLF EOLs*.

 * The steps:
   * set core.autocrlf = false
   * add file with mixed EOLs
   * set core.autocrlf = true
   * delete that file in the working tree
   * checkout that file
   * examine the EOL

If you are interested in this, you might take a look at my testing repository on GitHub. (https://github.com/YueLinHo/TestAutoCrlf)

Thank you.
