Thanks for amending.

We have the file CRLF (and CRLFmixLF), where we check that CRLF stays CRLF and is not
converted into CRLFLF.

The LF_nul is to test the "auto text detection":
It should not be converted into CRLF_nul in "auto mode",
but should be converted when declared as "text" in .gitattributes.
