Add gitignore to metadata #6

Closed lucasmitrak closed 3 years ago

lucasmitrak commented 3 years ago

This commit was written against the current master branch of xartin's gentoo-overlay. Currently the overlay does not ignore the md5-cache nor the cache which can be generated inside of the metadata directory. An md5-cache directory is created upon executing the Q/A program pkgcheck with pkgcheck scan . With the gitignore, the auto-generated md5-cache will be properly ignored. Without the gitignore, the auto-generated md5-cache will not be ignored and so much be constantly deleted. This gitignore is present in both the main gentoo overlay and sci's overlay. https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/blob/master/metadata/.gitignore https://github.com/gentoo/sci/blob/master/metadata/.gitignore

This commit was written and submitted by Lucas Mitrak. This commit was tested with repoman and pgkcheck for Q/A.
