When I clone a project, I did git status right away and some files appear edited.
I check with git diff . and all edited files have the same message: "warning: CRLF will be replaced by LF".
I didn't even open any files.
git checkout . didn't work.
How is this possible?

You are on a Linux machine, are you not? (It's hard to tell but you do have [tag:linux] in your tags, which isn't really appropriate here but is a clue nonetheless.) – torek May 07 '21 at 01:33

On Linux new line mark it is \n, and on Windows it is \r\n, so it looks like when you clone a repository, the operating system changes \r\n to \n and you see the difference
