What? Last time I checked it did not have any version controlled meta data handling at all.
Well, then it must be christmas :-)...
"man gitattributes" reveals version controlled data handling (version controlled, because it is easily managed inside a .gitattributes file which can be put in every subdir(tree) you'd like).
You can actually chose to have them version controlled or not, i.e. they can go into .git/info/attributes or they can go into .gitattributes files that are placed inside the repository.
