convert_attrs populates a struct conv_attrs. The field attr_action is
not set in all code paths, but still one caller unconditionally reads
it. Since git_check_attr always returns the same value, we'll always end
up in the same code path and there is no problem right now. But
convert_attrs is obviously trying not to rely on such an
implementation-detail of another component.

Initialize attr_action to CRLF_UNDEFINED in the dead code path.

Actually, in the code path that /is/ taken, the variable is assigned to
twice and the first assignment has no effect. That's not wrong, but
let's remove that first assignment while we're here.

I hit a warning about attr_action possibly being uninitialized when
building with SANITIZE=thread. I guess it's some random interaction
between code added by tsan, the optimizer (-O3) and the warning
machinery. (This was with gcc 5.4.0.)
