The safecrlf check will only be done if autocrlf converts a file. For new files autocrlf is unchanged, and safecrlf will complain or die as before. For existing files, you will only be able to get autocrlf to do anything (and thus do the safecrlf check) if the files are normalized to LF only in the repo, or if you have set the crlf attribute on them. - Finn Arne
