That does the job, thanks! However, as Gav suspected, it does seem to override
the defaults. I created a dummy .cvs folder to see if it was included, and it
was, so some additional thought is required if we want .git excluded by
default (should probably exclude .gitignore as well, like the defaults do with
.cvsignore).
