Generate .gitignore with git.mk (17.19 KB, patch)

Description Michael Catanzaro 2013-12-16 18:40:42 UTC 
It's hard to see what I'm doing with 'git status' since so many generated files are not ignored. Rather than keeping .gitignore up to date manually, are you open to git.mk?

Generate .gitignore with git.mk

Keeps it up to date. Also, allows cleaning Autotools-generated files
with 'make maintainer-clean'

This is great. Doesn't ignore help/C/*~, po/*~, or ~src/resources/*~ files for some reason though.
Comment 3 Michael Catanzaro 2013-12-22 15:54:10 UTC 
It does for me (and if it didn't, it wouldn't be very useful). In the past I've sometimes needed a distclean (and rebuild) to get it working.

Sure, can't see why not.
