System-wide means maximum space save, but it require system
administration to install Zit, and considering that one of the things
I love of Zit now is its being self contained, I would rather not
depend on anything system-wide anyway.

The user .zitignore file is probably the best approach: we can create
it ourselves (usually), and even if Git doesn't expand the pathname
itself, we can just use an absolute path. I'll go that way.
