For example, maybe the reason why you do not want to place them

.git/info/exclude?
I was wondering if anyone ever actually uses this curious invention.
This sounds like an actual real-world use case (not that I would see
many of these before ;-).
I had forgotten about that. I will start using it now though. Simply adding
"foo*", "fnurg*" and "sdf*" to that file will save my poor brain some of its
cognitive filtering capacity.
Thanks for reminding me, and yes, this does indeed seem like the perfect
use-case for it. :)
