What kind of warnings have you been getting? Earlier we had a bug in the jk/config-warn-on-inaccessible-paths series that made it warn when we tried to open a .gitattribute file and open() returned an error other than ENOENT. The bug was that we saw unnecessary errors when a directory that used to exist no longer exists in the working tree; we would instead get ENOTDIR in such a case that needs to be ignored. The problem was supposed to be "fixed" by 8e950da (attr: failure to open a ".gitattributes" file is OK with ENOTDIR, 2012-09-13); if you are still seeing the error, that error still may need to be addressed, regardless of Nguyễn's patch.
