[boost] [conversion] Isolating the phantom file changes problem

Subject: [boost] [conversion] Isolating the phantom file changes problem

This is the simplest case I could come up with where git clone produced a
initially modified state.

Any ideas why this is happening? Is this another manifestation of crlf
