Hmm. It looks like some other files don't have that.
You could try something like a .gitattributes file that says
Documentation/*.html.git text=auto
which should make git convert them all to LF internally, and then check
them out with whatever the system default is (so CRLF on Windows, LF
elsewhere).
I'm not a huge fan of the SCM messing with line endings, but if other tools
generate that kind of crud, and we end up having odd random mixtures
depending on how the file was sent around etc, then maybe that is the
lesser evil.
