Why not just put * in there?
That's what I've been using for years,

Don't ask me.  I just followed the current used format
as this is always less controversial for people not
directly involved in a project.

Maybe being more explicit is safer in the long run (what
if a file `gnus-old' appear, for instance).

Most likely such a `gnus-old' should be ignored as well.

BTW, why not just out the `info' directory itself in the .cvsignore of
the tree root?

Because the file `dir' there should not be ignored.

Supposedly, the `info' directory should be created, and the `dir' file is
expected to be there (although it can also be auto-built by `install-info').
