I personally think a global is good enough for a case like this. It
is not like the code in the attribute subsystem is structured to
work in multiple repositories at the same time in the first place, so
in repo_settings, the_repository, or elsewhere is just as good as
having it in a plain old file-scope static, and even after moving it
into the_repository or something, the access will initially be done
by referring to the_repository global (which may not even exist by
the time "git --attr-source=<tree>" gets parsed), and not by plumbing
a "struct repository *" parameter through the callchain.
Another thing to note is that there needs a mechanism to convey the
tree object used to read the attributes from down to subprocesses,
e.g. exporting the GIT_ATTR_SOURCE environment variable and make Git
behave as if it saw the "git --attr-source=<tree>" option when such
an environment variable exists, or something. Otherwise, the custom
attribute source would only take effect inside built-in commands.
In any case, here is what I have now, stealing some tests from your
patch. I do not think I'll be working on it further at least for
now, so feel free to run with it. I am not adding the "in a bare
repository, always read from HEAD unless told otherwise", as I do
not see a good way to countermand it from a command line.

Subject: [PATCH] attr: teach "--attr-source=<tree>" global option to "git"
Earlier, 47cfc9bd (attr: add flag `--source` to work with tree-ish,
2023-01-14) taught "git check-attr" the "--source=<tree>" option to
allow it to read attribute files from a tree-ish, but did so only
for the command. Just like "check-attr" users wanted a way to use
attributes from a tree-ish and not from the working tree files,
users of other commands (like "git diff") would benefit from the
same.
Undo most of the UI change the commit made, while keeping the
internal logic to read attributes from a given tree-ish. Expose the
internal logic via a new "--attr-source=<tree>" command line option
given to "git", so that it can be used with any git command that
runs internally.
The tests were stolen and adjusted from John Cai's effort where only
"git diff" learned the "--attr-source" option to read from a
tree-ish.
