That was what I had in mind. Feel like making a PR?

Subject: Re: [Pdl-devel] .gitignore strangeness
What about this paragraph as part of the OVERVIEW / WARNING section in
PDL::PP:
Another problem arises from the number of generated files that may be
confusing especially when dealing with existing code. Bear in mind that
the only sources are ".pd" and ".pod" files, while ".pm", ".xs" and ".c"
files are generated from the ".pd" files and shall not be altered as
these changes would be overwritten.
Best regards,
-jo
