...but are you saying then that there would be a case where we want dev's to be able to commit these paths into the tree?? I would think we would want these in global .gitignore primarily because we want to be sure no errant newbie dev (or newtogit dev) that happens to use one of these paths ends up committing something that adds them. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iF4EAREIAAYFAlXMprMACgkQAJxUfCtlWe3ZQAD/d9x9H5z3GrfXhhxaoeuWRcWb XqAVzBr0tpkuwUFwl4oA/2uIJWkWGZU9ny7J6Px3kA1axl8hEGoJJnKDwJL9CKzz =Rrq6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
