just a random comment: the .git/info/exclude file acts as a personal, private .gitignore you don't have to commit

  Nice! I didnt know about this. Feel like its in an odd place. This is the first ive ever heard of this, so must be that not many use it (or admit to using it)

    A more suggestive name like “private-ignore” would help.

      While I always hate the cluttering of "top" directories, id think something more like `.gitignore.local` at the top level would be much better than where its hidden

        Yeah absolutely. When it is buried inside the repository itself most people won't find out about it, even with a good name.
