The reasoning to keep 'tags' ignored is because we ship .ctags, but generally tooling files should be ignored by "personal" .gitignores as we can't cover all of it especially if we don't configure it. I guess the reasoning for editor temp files is to prevent mistakes as those are basically to be present for everyone trying to edit the project. _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list -- devel@lists.libvirt.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.libvirt.org
