Other projects using submodules sometimes have
a .gitattributes entry to have .gitmodules not exported
via git-archive. Do we want a similar thing?

Speaking of attributes, I wonder if we want to specify
the .gitmodules file to be text with unixy file endings:
Having an entry
    .gitattributes eol=crlf
to simulate a Windows environment doesn't harm
submodule operation, which is good. I'll check if we
have a test for that.
