Having looked at this a bit more, I think it does mostly do the right
thing, but there is bug in write_entry() that means it won't handle
.gitattributes correctly when using a streaming filter.

The path passed to get_stream_filter is only used to decide what filters
apply to the file, so shouldn't it be using "ce->name" and not "path"
for the same reason that the call to convert_to_working_tree() further
down the same function does?
