It seems as though rstudio doesn't see or recognize the .gitattributes file.
(I can't find an obvious way to edit it in the IDE, just using vim from the terminal instead)
Alternately, is there a way to make rstudio show all "invisible" files?
Thanks for the bug report! I've just added .gitattributes to the file whitelist and you should see this in the next daily builds of RStudio.
As for display of hidden files, this has also been implemented and will be available in the next release of RStudio (v1.2). See: https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/issues/1769
