   > considering usage of the .gitignore
   
   Certainly worth considering, but I wouldn't as part of this issue/PR. This 
PR is a simple tweak of the current code. Referencing/using .gitignore is an 
algorithmic change, in particular
   
   - The current structure of `...doScan...` only looks at names on the current 
level. To use .gitignore requires multi-directory-level consideration.
   - Reading a file to change scan behavior.
   - embedding knowledge of internals of a VCS file.
   
   These issues require extended thought and consideration.
   
   I took a quick look at .gitignore, didn't seem like there was much in there 
that isn't already skipped. Is there something in particular that should be 
skipped that isn't?
