Visual Studio Code should not discriminate against .gitignore files. It should infact worship them.

[binn]

• VSCode Version: 1.19.1
• OS Version: Windows 10 (latest public build as of 2/10/2018)

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Open a file
2. Hit "Save as" or use Control + Shift + A
3. Change the file type in the dropdown
4. Hover over "Plain Text"
5. You will see that it's calling .gitignore as a "plain text" file.

This is not okay, .gitignore should be be hailed, it is our saviour, our god. How dare they call it just a mere plain text. Hmph!

This is why you get banned from discord bin, not because b1nzy hates you, which he probably does.

What does this have to do with Discord?

VS Code is a program. As such, it does not discriminate or worship.

If you are a real worshiper of .gitignore, consider making an extension to better support it: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/extensions/overview
