I personally don't use "native" as I found it didn't really work for me. I use LF though, and I found out that you not only need to set the property but you also have to ensure that you don't have mixed eol. In my case was just a matter of using dos2unix, I'm not sure what you can do in you case.
Maybe, and I have not tested it, you can check your files out on a unix machine, set the property (if not set already), use dos2unix and commit. Next time you check out on Windows you should have the correct eol for Windows.
