[PATCH] Ignore files generated by regression testing

[PATCH] Ignore files generated by regression testing

[Lee Duhem]

Hi,

This patch adds some patterns in `.gitignore' to ignore files
generated during regression
testing.

OK to commit?

Sincerely,
lee

I believe unmerged changes in emacs-24 have already covered much/most of
this.

You are correct. Branch emacs-24 already ignored *.elc and *.log, but
a.out still
missing in its ignore patterns.

I added it to emacs-24 as commit 54a29f4.

I wonder why the gitignore file wasn't simply a more literal conversion
of the bzrignore file. Maybe now it is.

.gitignore has been around since 1999, I suppose for Git copies of the 
repositories.  Perhaps that contributed to the confusion.

The new .gitignore looks a lot like the old .bzrignore, but it's not the same, 
as I removed stuff that looked to me like it was obsolete (e.g., 
configure.lineno, src/_gdbinit) and refactored for simplicity (e.g., *.log).  I 
made some mistakes in that, which have been repaired (and most likely more 
repairs are needed) but it seemed like a good time for a fresh start.

Removing src/_gdbinit was a mistake; I fixed it.

Git didn't exist in 1999. :-) This is the result of the git conversion
which renamed .cvsignore to .gitignore all through the history.
