One simple solution is:

• make sure core.autocrlf is set to false for all repos:
  git config --global core.autocrlf false
• re-clone your repo, and check no EOL conversion is done.
• or, since Git 2.16 (Q1 2018), keep your current repo, and do a git add --renormalize .

If there are conversions automatically done, that mean a .gitattributes core.eol directive is there within the repo.

With Git 2.8+ (March 2016), check if there are still eol transformation with:

git ls-files --eol
