The *.pl pattern currently sets eof=lf, which is not a built-in attribute used for line-ending normalization. Use eol=lf instead, matching the neighboring *.perl and *.pm rules, so Perl scripts are checked out with LF line endings. Signed-off-by: Koutian Wu <ktwu01@gmail.com>

The Signed-off-by and commit author should use your real name, if
possible. See [1].

Yeah, this looks obviously correct to me. Thanks for the fix!

Thanks.
This typo come from 1f34e0cd (.gitattributes: include `text`
attribute for eol attributes, 2023-02-03), that added "text" to
those entries with eol=lf, which inherited from 20460635
(.gitattributes: use the "perl" differ for Perl, 2018-04-26), which
inherited it while it was adding diff=perl from 00acdbc6
(.gitattributes: add *.pl extension for Perl, 2018-04-26) that added
the .pl pattern. It is interesting that nobody seems to have
noticed the typo during the reviews of these three patches that
touched these lines ;-).
By the way, we'd prefer to interact with humans with real sounding
names rather than handles, especially when it is not particularly
secret. Your authorship and sign-off information will blend better
in the community if you used "Koutian Wu".
