No hooks means something like cvsnt does, and that means no .gitattributes either. (BTW I really hate .gitattributes, as it does not at all say what this is about; it's about file _conversions_, not attributes). CVSNT analyzes the files, and guesses if they are text, and only then activates the text mode. I am strongly opposed to including something like that. (It was already proposed, and your "no hooks" suggests the same.) However, I am slightly positive about the .gitfiletypes approach, _iff_ we think about more than just text/binary from the start. If we do it right, it will buy us more.
