Since it's close to impossible to cater to both in-tree and out-of-tree builds, you'll either end up with no .gitignore files in the repo at all or adding them and having those files ignored. Given that git clean -xn will show you even those files that you ignore (and other VCS have their own variant of the same), it may be slightly easier to just keep the .gitignore files in the tree.
