+attr.tree::
+ A reference to a tree in the repository from which to read attributes,
+ instead of the `.gitattributes` file in the working tree. If the value
+ does not resolve to a valid tree object, an empty tree is used instead.
+ When the `GIT_ATTR_SOURCE` environment variable or `--attr-source`
+ command line option are used, this configuration variable has no effect.
