  Yes, you are right *.o *~ is best way of doing. But for some files like
Makefile and generated header files we have
  to mention absolute name including path. In original clone, I could not
find any gitignore after doing "./bootstrap" only
  the following .gitignore files are created. Thats why I had ignored it, I
may be wrong.

./po/.gitignore
./lib/.gitignore
./lib/glthread/.gitignore
./gnulib/.gitignore
./gnulib/doc/.gitignore
./build-aux/snippet/.gitignore
./build-aux/.gitignore
./m4/.gitignore
