[PATCH 01/10] .gitattributes: specify the language used

From: "Bhushan G. Lodha & David A. Dalrymple" <dad-bgl@mit.edu>

Since git can intelligently emit diff hunk headers based on the programming language of each file, assuming that the language is specified in .gitattributes, it makes sense to specify our own language (cpp) in our own .gitattributes file.
