.gitattributes?

svn:eol-style translates roughly into crlf. svn:keywords translates
(partially) into ident.

git appears to ignore unrecognized entries in .gitattributes. The rest
can be stored there untranslated (or lightly translated - ':' is not
legal for .gitattributes names, if I read the comments correctly).
