I find this approach undesirable, because AFAICT, it means you have
to commit this extra file to any of your downstream branches that
you want this to be used for. Then you have to be either delete it
again before sending patches upstream, or tell git-publish to
exclude the commit that adds this.
IMHO any per-contributor overhead needs to not involve committing
stuff to their git branches, that isn't intended to go upstream.
