How to repair CRLF in GIT repository to avoid merge conflicts

Question

I created my repo with autocrlf=true and then made some checkouts and commits with autocrlf=false. Then switched back to autocrlf=true

Answer 1

Easy answer: Unless you ARE doing x-platform dev with non-Windows, set this to false. There is no need for your source control to bastardize your files for you. After fixing any remaining issues you should be flying. Make sure the others working with you also set this to false.
