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. 

 

eh? git creates .git/info/exclude in every git repository AFAIK. And it's referred to here: <https://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore>

cheers
