I know this is code moved from elsewhere, but it seems it'd be useful to
fail hard here with a proper error instead of returning #f silently?  Or
add support for recursive clones; was is missing to enable that?  It's
at least easy from the git CLI.

I'm not familiar with this code, but was wondering why we need to do
this post processing and handle .gitattributes.  I never care about this
on my GNU/Linux machine when using 'git clone'.  Perhaps 'git fetch' is
used directly, which is why?

Time passes...  Ah!  I misread -- that's peculiar to Software Heritage.
