Be aware of items I documented in bug
387427
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=387427

Namely, I may have "fixed"
part of the problem by normalizing EOLs in three files to UNIX EOLs (LF).

The interesting thing (to me) was that
Eclipse would let me invoke the "change line delimiter" function
on these files until I associated the file types (b3aggrcon, b3aggr) to
"XML". 
That was enough, apparently, for at
least Eclipse to recognize them as "text" files, instead of binary,
and allowed me to change EOLs to LF. 
Sorry if I messed up your test case
:/

Just FYI.

I cloned the simrel repo on Windows using the latest nightly build and
nothing is marked dirty.

$ cat /u/.gitconfig
[user]
         email = robin.rosenberg@xxxxxxxxxx
         name = Robin Rosenberg

$ cat /etc/gitconfig
[core]
         symlinks = false
         autocrlf = true
[color]
         diff = auto
         status = auto
         branch = auto
         interactive = true
[pack]
         packSizeLimit = 2g
[help]
         format = html
[http]
         sslCAinfo = /bin/curl-ca-bundle.crt
[sendemail]
         smtpserver = /bin/msmtp.exe

[diff "astextplain"]
         textconv = astextplain
[rebase]
         autosquash = true

Eclipse finds the git system config in C:\Program Files\Git\etc\gitconfig
and nothing looks strange in the config.

If I compare an unchanhged file with HEAD revison all lines are marked
changed, so that's a bug.
