I was hoping for one that didn't involve a commit, since when Boost2Git runs, all the commits change and I can't cherry-pick the fix on top of a working directory that contains dirty files that will also change with the cherry-pick.

True. If you don't mind running Boost2Git yourself, you could merge my EOL fix patchset to Boost2Git at https://github.com/ryppl/Boost2Git/pull/42. That patchset does inline EOL fixups during conversion, so the output is all EOL correct and therefore git does not flag files as being modified. Niall -- Currently unemployed and looking for work.
