package org.eclipse.jgit.attributes;

Represents an attribute.

According to the man page, an attribute can have the following states:

  • Set - represented by State.SET
  • Unset - represented by State.UNSET
  • Set to a value - represented by State.CUSTOM
  • Unspecified - used to revert an attribute . This is crucial in order to mark an attribute as unspecified in the attributes map and thus preventing following (with lower priority) nodes from setting the attribute to a value at all
Since:3.7
