The “DESCRIPTION” section of gitignore(5) goes through it pretty clearly [1]. $GIT_DIR/info/exclude (likely ~/src/catalyst/.git/info/exclude or similar for you) has the same syntax as .gitignore, but it's not versioned. gitignore(5) recommends it for [1]: Patterns which are specific to a particular repository but which do not need to be shared with other related repositories (e.g., auxiliary files that live inside the repository but are specific to one user’s workflow) Cheers, Trevor [1]: https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/gitignore.html -- This email may be signed or encrypted with GnuPG (http://www.gnupg.org).
