For Tomcat, it appears core.autocrlf=false is the way to go but I'd like
to keep an eye on things for a while.

Now I've figured out how to spot when things go wrong, I shouldn't mess
things up again.

As git is used more with svn, that is probably a good idea.

As an aside, I am finding it really useful. The things I have found I
have been able to do much more easily include:
- work on multiple bugs at once and switch between them
- do code clean-up and re-factoring as I go along but then cherry pick
selected changes (e.g. the cleanup) and commit them separately so the
commit for the actual fix is cleaner
- go back a few steps when I realise I need to change track with a fix

There is a learning curve and if I hadn't been forced (against my will
at the time) to use git at $work I doubt I would find the things I am
doing now quite as easy.
