If you prefer to keep it all in one directory tree, something like the following would work on Linux. (The first of the two statements would probably need a slight tweak to work on other *nix, but I'm not sure of the best format.) echo '# Globally ignore common build product patterns.

It produces the attached for me, which seems to work. For me, at least. On kubuntu. If we included and maintained the attached file in the repository, it'd save running the above. That seems reasonable to me, but I don't care enough to argue over it. -Kevin
