filter: optionally read attributes from repository When `GIT_FILTER_ATTRIBUTES_FROM_HEAD` is specified, configure the filter to read filter attributes from `gitattributes` files that are checked in to the repository at the HEAD revision. This passes the flag `GIT_ATTR_CHECK_INCLUDE_HEAD` to the attribute reading functions.
