startsWith dosen't take an array of needles. It takes a
variadic list of them.
So, it needs to be something more like
!a.name.startsWith(".git/", ".gitignore")
If you want to save the list though, you can use
std.typetuple.TypeTuple and
an alias:
alias TypeTuple!(".git/", ".gitignore") ignore;
At that point, the rest of your code should work as-is.

What if I want to load my ignore list from a file?
