We can add a `.gitattributes` file

[jbampton]

A standard .gitattributes file is a plain text file placed in a Git repository's root to define path-specific behavior, crucial for ensuring consistent cross-platform line endings ((LF) vs (CRLF)), marking files as binary, and configuring Git LFS. It ensures all collaborators share identical settings, avoiding file corruption and diff issues.
