Oh, that is totally different. We do not store directories, and they do
not have attributes, period.
While that is true (yet many beg git to natively support empty dirs…),
`.gitignore` does deal with directories. As you quoted,

Isn't applying the same logic to `.gitattributes` be the most
straightforward solution? Also code-wise, I suppose.
