Subject: incorrect git diff output

Hello,
I tried to remove an extra semicolon on line number 1153 of this file
drivers/scsi/qlogicpti.c and attempted a git diff to confirm my edits. To my
surprise, the diff contained few other unrelated changes that I did not do. I
tied to set aurocr git attribute in the .gitconfig file, but that did not help
either.

Does anyone know about this behavior and how to correct it?

Thank you,
./drv
