Your interest in the git project is appreciated, but we try to keep
our .gitignore to the common build artifacts.  Things that are
created for those who share a certaion personal preference, like
editor backup files, are best listed in .git/info/exclude (or
$HOME/.gitignore).  I am an Emacs user but *~ is not in .gitignore
in the project, for example.

Thanks.
