I have the same problems, but I work around them.  Using the git:
protocol works, setting "git config core.autocrlf false" followed by
"git checkout -- ." seems to get around the line-endings problem, and
using "mvn -Dmaven.test.skip ..." gets around the failing tests.

One of us (meaning Windows users) really should step up and start
contributing patches for those tests...   um, anyone? anyone? I guess
I should get around to talking to my boss about signing that CA -
should only take a few months to get past the lawyers, I hope :)  Oh,
the joys of working for a big company.
