When a CR is accidentally added at the end of a C source file in the git
project tree, "git diff --check" doesn't detect it as an error.
$ echo abQ | tr Q '\015' >>fast-import.c
$ git diff --check
I think this is because the "whitespace" attribute is set to *.[ch] files
without specifying what kind of errors are caught. It makes git "notice
all types of errors" (as described in the documentation), but I think it
is incorrectly setting cr-at-eol, too, and hides this error.

Most folks using git-gui on internationalized files have complained
that it doesn't recognize UTF-8 correctly. In the past we have just
ignored the problem and showed the file contents as binary/US-ASCII,
which is wrong no matter how you look at it.
This really should be a per-file attribute, managed by .gitattributes,
so we now pull the "encoding" attribute data for the given path from
the .gitattributes (if available) and use that, falling back to UTF-8
if the attributes are unavailable, git-check-attr is broken, or an
encoding for this path not specified.
We apply the encoding anytime we show file content, which currently
is limited to only the diff viewer and the blame viewer.

This establishes what the "bad" whitespaces are for this
project.
The rules are:
- Unless otherwise specified, indent with SP that could be
replaced with HT are not "bad". But SP before HT in the
indent is "bad", and trailing whitespaces are "bad".
- For C source files, initial indent by SP that can be replaced
with HT is also "bad".
- Test scripts in t/ and test vectors in its subdirectories can
contain anything, so we make it unrestricted for now.
Anything "bad" will be shown in WHITESPACE error indicator in
diff output, and "apply --whitespace=warn" will warn about it.
