[Python-Dev] .{git,bzr}ignore in cpython HG repo

[Matěj Cepl]

Why does HG cpython repo contains .{bzr,git}ignore at all?
IMHO, all .*ignore files should be strictly repository dependent and 
they should not be mixed together.

It is even worse, that (understandingly) .{bzr,git}ignore are apparently 
poorly maintained, so in order to get an equivalent of .hgignore in 
.gitignore, one has to apply the attached patch.

Best,

Matěj
