[Eduard Wiebe]

 Hi,

any concerns to add this tiny change?

* files.el (auto-mode-alist): Use `conf-mode' for Bzr, Git, and Hg
  config files.

As I see it, conf-mode is useful for things that contain
"var=value" statements.

bzrignore, bazaar/ignore, .hgignore, .gitignore, .git/info/exclude
  do not

.gitconfig and .hgrc do.
.gitattributes sort of does, maybe.
.git/info/attributes seems like overkill.


So I added just .gitconfig and .hgrc.
