remove needless hidden files #1

Closed tarsius closed 12 years ago

tarsius commented 12 years ago

since there is only one library I mad variables file local instead of directory local

you always want to ignore byte-compiled files so you should not do so per repository but once in /etc/gitignore and add this to /etc/gitconfig:

[core]
    excludesfile = /etc/gitignore

also could you please make a new release... it has been a while

nschum commented 12 years ago

Sorry, but I disagree. I see no improvement in this change.

I do have my .elc files ignored globally, but also don't want anybody forking the project to rely on a certain configuration. The .elc files are artifacts created from specific sources in the project and thus should be ignored by the project. (Files created by my OS, on the other hand, would only be ignored in my personal configuration.)

I also prefer the directory-wide configuration for development, if only because it scales to additional files without hassle if needed.

Well that makes sense. I still prefer this to be configured globally. You don't and that's fine too.
