[vc-git] Showing ‘.git/*’ files in vc-dir

When I `vc-dir` for a directory that is under version control with
Git, I see that files under the `.git` directory are displayed, often
as being untracked.  For example, after making a commit the file
`COMMIT_EDITMSG` will appear as being untracked.  It seems like all of
these files should be ignored by vc-dir and not be shown, since I do
not think there is a legitimate reason you’d ever want to commit a
file like that, or anything else in the `.git/*` directory.

I was curious about anyone else’s thoughts on this.  If this sounds
reasonable, I would like to take a stab at writing a patch to address
this.  Also I should mention that I am using the latest Emacs 23, and
not the trunk, which I know has had recent updates to vc-mode; so my
apologizes if this is something that’s already been addressed.
