Ahem. Yes. I've got a patch ready for zit that gets rid of them.

(A smarter way would be to create a template, but I'm not smart.)

Zit does
 		echo "*" > $GIT_DIR/info/exclude
and yes it sucks to use a whole block for a file that only contains
one character. Suggestions welcome.

The reason why we want the exclude is that when you do zit status
somefile you don't want every other file in the directory to come up
as 'not tracked'.
