Yep; in repository-layout.txt it says:

info/exclude::
    This file, by convention among Porcelains, stores the
    exclude pattern list. `.gitignore` is the per-directory
    ignore file.  `git status`, `git add`, `git rm` and `git
    clean` look at it but the core git commands do not look
    at it.  See also: gitlink:git-ls-files[1] `--exclude-from`
    and `--exclude-per-directory`.
