How to remove unspecified changes [newlines] in git?

This is disappointing, and I just can't find the right answer on how to handle this. I am after rebase [but this is only one of many scenarios where this problem arises], and I have a ton of files “modified but not updated” that do not make any difference, but for newlines.

git diff -b

nothing returns.

Now I just want to delete the changes and leave the files as they are in the repo. I have found many "solutions":

1 Saving changes
a) with -keep-index [this was from SO]

$ git stash save --keep-index
Saved working directory and index state WIP on COM-23: 4a8abc1 COM-23 changed pa
ckage name
HEAD is now at 4a8abc1 COM-23 changed package name

$ git stash drop
Dropped refs/stash@{0} (7d822e3c6bdc310f4a4be90ed937dd0ea97df627)

$ git status
[tons of files marked as changed but not updated]

b) without -keep-index
just like with 'a'

2 git reset
a) just a reset

git reset --hard HEAD

as stated above

b) with the addition

git add -A
git reset --hard HEAD

as stated above

3 checkout

git checkout
