see https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/getting-started-with-git/ignoring-files#configuring-ignored-files-for-all-repositories-on-your-computer
for various strategies


We can add it to "~/.config/git/ignore" as it will ignore globally on windows which we don't want. Also we don't have ".git/info/exclude" in PG project's so the best place left is projects's .gitignore. That's what was patched. 
 
Anyway if those are not files specific to your setup (like editor
ones), but files which every PG hacker on Windows will generate as
well (which is this case IMHO), it will make sense to add it into
project's gitignore.
