*We try to notify this list when API changes are made in Drupal, so contrib and custom developers have a chance to fix their code before they have the pain of figuring out why it's broken.*
(issue <http://drupal.org/node/917492>) OK, so this isn't really an API change, but it may affect you in the same way, and since I was involved in it, I'll 'fess up. We have added a .gitignore file to the git repositories in Drupal 7 and 8. If you already had a .gitignore file, and the one that was added does not meet your needs, please see #37 in that issue<http://drupal.org/node/917492#comment-4386912>for workarounds. BTW: I will probably announce Drupal *7* api changes should they happen, but won't be announcing Drupal 8 changes, perhaps ever. We hope to have a much better technique for this, see Make API Changes in Drupal Core be Nodes<http://drupal.org/node/648218>.
