348 Note that only attributes affecting the working tree are suppressed.
349 git-archive may remain exciting.

248248 and
249249 .B dgit setup-gitattributes
250250 in dgit(1).

252 Note that dgit does not disable gitattributes
253 unless they would actually interfere with your work on dgit branches.
254 In particular, gitattributes which affect
255 .B git archive
256 are not disabled,
257 so .origs you generate by hand can be wrong.
258 You should consider using
259 .B git-deborig (1)
260 which gets this right, suppressing the attributes.
