If you do "toplevel" -> "top-level" while at it, perhaps we would
want to correct "work tree" -> "working tree".
Looking better.
Yes, I realized I sent the wrong file when reviewing the sent email,
hence the followup. Aside, it's not clear to me how to send patch emails
that _also_ have not-to-be-committed notes like "oops, ignore the last".
First time contributor problems!
Another tangent. The discovery process used for the .gitattributes
files is identical to what is done to the .gitignore files; we may
want to make sure that the explanation we give in our documentation
won't cause the same confusion you are trying to avoid with this
change. Such a fix does not have to be (and probably should not be)
a part of this change, though.
I'm out of the office for the next week, but otherwise I'm glad to take
that on when I'm back if no one else picks it up.
