The other alternative is to introduce the .gitignore right from the
beginning with filterbranch, which is what I did for
eclipse.platform.runtime.git and eclipse.platform.ui.git:

From
http://git.eclipse.org/c/e4/org.eclipse.migration.git/tree/scripts/migration_script.sh

cat - >gitignore <<EOF
bin/
*~
*.rej
*.bak
core
*.patch
javacore.*
heapdump.*
core.*
Snap.*
target/

EOF
cd $REPO
new_file=$(git hash-object -w ../gitignore)
git filter-branch \
--index-filter \
'git update-index --add --cacheinfo 100644 '"$new_file"' .gitignore' \
--tag-name-filter cat \
-- --all

git reset --hard


You only need one at the root of your repo.  Then bundle qualifiers won't
change.
