[bug-libsigsegv] Re: [PATCH] * .gitignore: Ignore more files.

[Bruno Haible]

Hi Eric,

Since I'm now preparing a new release, I feel safer if "git status" behaves
the way I described.

> Here is the .git/info/exclude that I use for libsigsegv.

I've added it to .gitignore, but commented out. Let's discuss, if you feel
strongly that .git/info/exclude should be empty.

        Don't list files in .gitignore that are absent after "make distclean".
        * .gitignore: Complete the list of files that are created by "make" and
        removed by "make distclean". But comment them out, since they belong in
        .git/info/exclude. Also remove /autom4te.cache because "make distclean"
        does not remove it.
