Thanks for the clarification. Because I didn't expect this at all it
took me some time to understand that a local config affects also the
diffs already committed, not only "git diff" of uncommitted changes.
Neat.

But aren't there still things lost when one does this only locally?
1) The web browser view of the git repos
   http://orgmode.org/w/org-mode.git, its delayed mirror
   http://repo.or.cz/w/org-mode.git and http://repo.or.cz/w/Worg.git
   (for code/elisp/): Can be solved by configuring these three
   repos locally.
2) When reading patches submitted to the mailing list: Here I don't
   know the solution. In my simple trial, .gitattributes was not
   available in its clone done afterwards.

@Jason and Matt: At least, changing 1) alone would already help. What
do you think?

Michael
