Our general recommendation is that you put such things into your 
personal global git ignore file.

For example, I have in ~/.gitconfig

[core]
         excludesFile = ~/.gitexcludes

and then in ~/.gitexcludes I have various ignores that are specific to 
my local tooling.

That way we don't have to maintain ignore lists for all the tools in the 
world in the PostgreSQL source tree.
