Way to disable git attribute $id$ filter?

Question

I do know it is not a place to discuss product specific problems, yet I try to ask a Git specific question that arouse in a Git GUI product.

The Phing PHP library has the $id$ notation in their source code header and the Git GUI product keeps extending the SHA-1 gitattribute filter onto those files making them appear as modified versions. Please see the screenshot below how this looks like.

Can someone disable this built in filter in a gitattribute file? It can be only applied to PHP files.

Answer 1

Just read Git's documentation and fix your .gitattributes accordingly

Git expand %Id% only if if your case met two conditions:

%Id% keyword used in file AND attribute ident is set for a path of type (of this file) in .gitattributes
