of `echo` by the pipe. (`-` is a common Unix convention meaning
"standard input.")

Another (usually) correct approach is:

    C:\...> fossil setting crlf-glob *,

This works because the trailing comma prevents the command shell from
matching any files, unless you happen to have files named with a
trailing comma in the current directory. If the pattern matches no
files, it is passed into Fossil's `main()` function as-is by the C
runtime system. Since Fossil uses commas to separate multiple glob
patterns, this means "all files at the root of the Fossil checkout
directory and nothing else."
