When I set it up I told it to use unix style line endings, it seemed the least confusing of all the options.

I suggest you disable autocrlf  in the config (should be in "%GIT_DIR%/etc/gitconfig"). If you use an editor that keeps line endings as they are, you should be fine.

The first time I had just used the github website and that is probably what brought up the crlf issue.  Now that I've got a local copy, I plan on using ConTEXT do any edits/additions. I would think that it leaves the line endings as they are, but I don't really know...

I found the gifconfig file. Took a wild guess and forced it to open with ConTEXT (no extension so Windows won't automatically let me open it).  It's a basic text file, and the autoCRLF is set to input.  Do I just replace 'input' with 'disable' or is there something else that I should enter?  I'd rather get it done right, than do something wrong and screw things up later...

Either delete the autocrlf line or set it to false.
You can see the effect of autocrlf if you do a fresh checkout and a `git diff' shows you that all files are modified.
