I'm reading this a bit late, but... We (Xorg) found that ignoring:
*~ *.bak *.patch in addition to the files generated by building is very helpful. We do use git tag and git describe in the make dist process, as well as git log >ChangeLog. That may be relevant; avoiding git describe's dirty designation is important when using it in that fashion. But it helps to be able to run git add --all cleanly. I understand that other git users have similar experience. -JimC -- James Cloos <cl...@jhcloos.com> OpenPGP: 1024D/ED7DAEA6 -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
