That patch would give wrong output if the same happened at the end of a file. The attached patch should also cover this case.

Thanks for noticing. I went with a different title in the end. Junio, could you consider this one for inclusion in the next RC?
--- 8< --- Subject: [PATCH] convert: track state in LF-to-CRLF filter
There may not be enough space to store CRLF in the output. If we don't fill the buffer, then the filter will keep getting called with the same short buffer and will loop forever.
Instead, always store the CR and record there's a missing LF if necessary it so we store it in the output buffer the next time the function gets called.
