[PATCH v2] Revert ".gitignore: Ignore cscope and other *tags files"

Posted by Martin Kletzander 1 year, 2 months ago

This reverts commit f2d379e7cb802f922409c35e4831ee52a2162486.

Any tool-related ignores should go to user's global ignore file or the user's
local exclude file which is per-project.  See git-config(1) and gitignore(5) for
more details.

You can use:

Reviewed-by: Peter Krempa <pkrempa@redhat.com>

but I'm not too fussy about having few more ignores.

I fixed my issue in a better way and this also hints what to do and how
for others next time they will hunt for GTAGS not being ignored in the
history ;)
