Override .gitattributes text=auto in Windows

.gitattributes overrides all config settings, so it really can't be overridden; it is the "overrider," so to speak. While you can simply remove the line, this will cause inconsistent behavior on other developers' machines if they have core.autocrlf=true. So the best bet would be to add the following line to .gitattributes: * -text. This will disable CRLF processing for all files.

At least in modern versions of git, .git/info/attributes (or $GIT_DIR/info/attributes) overrides .gitattributes for local configuration.

Use * !text to use the value of core.autocrlf, or * -text to force no conversion.

See the documentation for gitattributes and the text attribute.

Also note: core.eol, the eol attribute
