Yeah, gitattributes(5), gitignore(5) and gitmodules(5) can take
advantage of the fact that they define file formats and describe
the underlying concepts in their own corner while describing the
file format. But there are many other things (e.g. syntax for
refspec, ref naming) that would benefit from having their own
topic-centric documents, without defining their own file format,
so git-refspec(5) trick is not an option for them.
