Seems more like a documentation misunderstanding to me:
| core.autocrlf
|
| Setting this variable to "true" is almost the same as setting the text
| attribute to "auto" on all files except that text files are not
| guaranteed to be normalized: files that contain CRLF in the repository
| will not be touched. Use this setting if you want to have CRLF line
| endings in your working directory even though the repository does not
| have normalized line endings. This variable can be set to input, in
| which case no output conversion is performed.

Don't set core.autocrlf to true if you don't want to have CRLFs in your
files. Use "input" if you just want to avoid accidentally commit CRLFs.
