The NHibernate repo has all the CRLFs from the SVN conversion. It's
been serving the project well, so I figured I'd leave it in a familiar
state. In a recent commit, I disabled auto-conversion. Make sure you
have the commit that added .gitattributes. You may also have to reset
your index to ensure the changes take effect properly.
