By the way, if you also need .crlf-message-$branch.txt to have CRLF line endings, then you'll probably want to use a temporary file (for instance, .crlf-orig-$branch.txt), perhaps like this:

    create_crlf_ref () {
        branch=$1 &&
        cat >.crlf-orig-$branch.txt &&
        append_cr <.crlf-orig-$branch.txt >.crlf-message-$branch.txt &&
        sed -n "1,/^$/p" <.crlf-orig-$branch.txt | sed "/^$/d" | append_cr >.crlf-subject-$branch.txt &&
        sed -n "/^$/,\$p" <.crlf-orig-$branch.txt | sed "1d" | append_cr >.crlf-body-$branch.txt &&
        ...
    }
