Do we want a similar thing? Speaking of attributes, I wonder if we want to specify the .gitmodules file to be text with unixy file endings: Having an entry .gitattributes eol=crlf to simulate a Windows environment doesn't harm submodule operation, which is good. I'll check if we have a test for that.
