Thanks for all of the detail. I think it comes down to the part I
quoted, though: it is indeed a disservice to matlab people to map "*.m"
to objc. So let's be conservative and not do that (projects can always
add their own gitattributes).
(Even before seeing your answer, I dropped it from the re-roll of my
patch that I sent, but this confirms to me that it was the right thing
to do).
