That roughly corresponds to having
!t
t/t0000-basic.sh
in gitignore mechanism, right? Generally t/ is not to be excluded, but
only t0000-basic.sh should be. Sounds like a right thing to do.

I am not quite sure what to do with this patch though.
You marked this as 3/3 without saying anything about where 1 and 2 are (or
if they even exist). You hint there is a 1 that should be dropped here.
Is this a re-rolled round, and if so where are the previous ones? Could
you make things easier to find (just saying something like [PATCH v2 3/3]
in the Subject: is good enough) next time?
