[mantisbt-dev] please, do not distribute .gitignore file on released tar.gz [2]

Hi Team,

I'm the debian maintainer of mantis.. I need to let you know since 1.2.x
versions I realized that you have been distributed .gitignore file with
the source code of mantisbt (TAR.GZ), this is a big problem if you are
using git as well for developing or in your production server. From
1.2.4-1 [1] to 1.2.6-1 mantis debian packages we have implemented a
patch for this issue, but this is not the right way.

It would be appreciated if .gitignore file, will not be distributed in
upstream released copies.

Thanks in advance.

BTW, now we are packaging the 1.2.7. Great job! :-)
