Do you have any .gitattributes?  A few days ago, ludde on IRC bumped
into the problem that git-checkout applies the .gitattributes that are
present in the tree *before* the checkout.  Naturally this means that
the .gitattributes do not apply at all during the first checkout at
the end of cloning.  In ludde's case, this caused git-blame to think
the file had all line endings changed compared to the index version.
