This is a git hook to store/restore attributes (access/modification times, ownerships, permissions and - on Linux - ACLs, and xattrs) for files stored in
a git repository, and for any extra files configured for attribute store/restore.
This hook can be used in place of programs such as **etckeeper** to automatically (once set up) record and restore the attributes for files in your `/etc`
directory.
