Further analyzing both traces you've sent, there is something
mysterious, indeed, when saving a file. Tramp works correctly, until a
remote git command is called. git seems to enable ^M's.

I do not know too much about git and how to configure, but maybe we
shall first verify, that this is the guilty command. Could you, please,
disable the vc machinery in Emacs, before using Tramp (just for test
purposes). You could do this by (setq vc-handled-backends nil)

Or do you use magit? A while ago, there was a discussion on tramp-devel
about problems with magit, but I don't know how it works today. In case
you use it, please disable for the test.
