Lf will be replaced by CRLF in index.html

In some cases when I add files to the staging area I get this message: warning: Lf will be replaced by CRLF in file_name. The file will have its original line endings in you're working directory

Do I have to worry about this?

No, I assume you're on Windows. It's just that Windows uses different line-endings to the Unix-based OSes like Linux and Mac OS X. Git just changes everything to be the same, but it doesn't really matter.
