Subject: Re: wishlist: git gui not listing untracked files in unstaged list

I am not saying that the ignore lists don't work. They certainly work very well.
I am just looking for a behavior of git-gui like "git status -uno" and
"git ls-files", which both don't attempt to scan untracked files.

My problem is that my build makes a lib_Linux/ and a bin_linux/ subdirectory
of my source dir - I could declare them in a gitignore, OK.
But my build also makes a symlink for each <exe> from bin_Linux/<exe> to . 
and I don't want to declare these links one by one in an ignore list.

I this is too problematic or un-natural for git-gui I will see if can generate
a .gitignore automatically in each source dir. In my makefile I have the list
of <exe>.
