Our general recommendation is that you put such things into your
personal global git ignore file.

For example, I have in ~/.gitconfig

[core]
excludesFile = ~/.gitexcludes

and then in ~/.gitexcludes I have various ignores that are specific to
my local tooling.

That way we don't have to maintain ignore lists for all the tools in the
world in the PostgreSQL source tree.
