Thanks, this is really cool. I'll try it next time I'm messing with our repositories (this week is unfortunately a bit too busy).

Do you think git would benefit from having a generalized version of this script? Basically, the user provides a "munge" script on the command line, and there's a git-filter-branch mode for auto-munging (with a cache) every file in every checkin. Even if it's *only* ever used for CRLF, I can imagine this being useful to a lot of people.

Thanks,
Avery
