- The combination of text=auto & eol=crlf (or eol=lf for that matter)
625
- is taught to be much more useful; it used to be "auto detection"
626
- was defeated as if setting eol declares that the file _is_ text,
627
- but now text=auto is still in effect for such a path and the code
628
- refrains from applying eol conversion if it found the path is not
629
- text. Also setting core.autocrlf to 'input' and core.eol to 'crlf'
630
- used to be rejected, but because the code gives precedence to
631
- core.autocrlf, there is no need to, hence we no longer reject the
