Hi,
I wanted to see if anyone thought it would a good idea to add .gitignore files in a few places to make it easier for using Git. Unless I'm missing something (which is highly likely), people who are using Git or git-svn for development are making their own accommodations for keeping built/generated files out of version control. I know at least a few developers are using git-svn, and there's the Git mirror which people might submit patches from, so it seems like it might be worthwhile for the minimal amount of effort. Again, I might have no idea what I'm talking about, so please correct me if that's the case, since I'm really new to using version control systems.
I've attached a patch which might be a good starting point but I've probably missed some files that get generated under certain circumstances.
