Well, I have not declared file binary with "binary = true" in diff driver
definition, isn't it?

Yes, gitattributes(5) defines interaction between 'text'/'eol', 'ident'
and 'filter' attributes, but nothing about 'diff' and 'text'/'eol'.

Well, either this (or equivalent using dos2unix), or using 'whitespace'
attribute (or 'core.whitespace') with cr-at-eol.


P.S. What do you think about Git supporting 'encoding' attribute (or
'core.encoding' config) plus 'core.outputEncoding' in-core?
