I did git checkout master. If I do git status it shows two changed files in my working directory, even though I haven’t touched them. It appears to be some sort of line ending issue.

    Did you set core.autocrlf to false (especially on Windows)?

    See this answer for good reason to leave it to false.

    Other causes could include a .gitattribute filter driver which would perform some changes on file content.
