In my opinion, you should run

 git config --global core.autocrlf false

in an RStudio terminal session.  That will set the git options so they don't mess up the md5sum values.

You should also go to the RStudio options, and in the Code section, Saving tab, choose Serialization to be Posix (LF) and default text encoding to be UTF-8.

Unfortunately, RStudio will still mess up the .Rproj file (see https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/issues/1929); there's not much you can do about that.  Just try not to commit the Windows version to the repository if any non-Windows users are sharing it.

But do note that other people have different opinions.  They argue that files should be converted to Windows native format by git. That works in some narrow use cases, but as soon as you try to extract a file from git on one system and work on it on another, it breaks.
