What causes these to be added?

I don't know, but I suspect they are generated by some variant of (e|c)tags which do not appear in our Makefile.

If this is the case, I'd say the place to put these is in a user-wide .gitignore (cf. core.excludesfile).

It is generated by GNU GLOBAL (http://www.gnu.org/software/global/).

Yes, they are from GNU GLOBAL source code tag system. And sorry, I didn't aware of that config variable. I'll use it for my environments then.

Thanks.
