Documentation such as Documentation/boards/kvx.rst and tooling such as conftest.py suggests /build is a good choice for build output directory. The build system does set up a .gitignore in the build directory but this has no effect if /build is a symlink to outside the tree.
Similarly, YOCTOs "devtool" sets up the symlinks /oe-logs and /oe-workdir to point to the respective paths in yoctos build tree. Include those in .gitignore.
