Christian also mentioned this problem last week (mail titled re: Github 
repo on June 23rd).

The odd thing is I don't get this. I've run this sequence:
$ git clone --mirror ssh://git@code.gnucash.org/gnucash.git
...
$ (cd gnucash.git; git fetch --all)
... (no errors)
$ git clone --local -b trunk gnucash.git gnucash-trunk
Cloning into 'gnucash-trunk'...
done.
Checking out files: 100% (2582/2582), done.

$ cd gnucash-trunk/
$ git status
# On branch trunk
#
# Initial commit
#
nothing to commit (create/copy files and use "git add" to track)


So as you can see, on my system these CRLF conversion errors are not 
appearing. I have no idea what's different. I'm on Fedora 18, 32bit. I 
have no config parameter set globally that relates in any way to crlf 
(no core.autocrlf or any other parameter).

So I'm a bit surprised you do run into these. Just like Christian does. 
Perhaps a locale setting ? This is what my locale is set to:
$ locale
LANG=en_US.utf8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.utf8"
LC_NUMERIC=nl_BE.utf8
LC_TIME=nl_BE.utf8
LC_COLLATE="en_US.utf8"
LC_MONETARY=nl_BE.utf8
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.utf8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.utf8"
LC_NAME="en_US.utf8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.utf8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.utf8"
LC_MEASUREMENT=nl_BE.utf8
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.utf8"
LC_ALL=

My git version is git-1.8.1.4-2.fc18.i686
