While I do not think of a reason offhand not to ignore anything that has .git/ and is not a subproject, other than that ignoring might interfere your adding such a separate project as a subproject. I know "git add" would countermand the ignore list, but not listing means it lets you forget. Thinking about it more, such a separate project is not even special. We list untracked files to remind you that you might want to add them. Why should a separate project that is not tracked by us (i.e. a potential superproject) be treated any differently from other untracked things on the filesystem? So, my thoughts are moderate "negative" at this point, but others may have better arguments.. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
