The commit message didn't give a rationale. Later on, commit 1f5d3a6b6532 ("Remove *.rej pattern from .gitignore") removed the *.rej pattern in v2.6.26, on the rationale that *.rej files indicated something went really wrong and should not be ignored. The *.rej files are now shown by `git status`, which helps located conflicts when applying patches and lowers the probability that they will go unnoticed. It is however still easy to overlook the *.orig files which slowly polute the source tree. That's not as big of a deal as not noticing a conflict, but it's still not nice. Drop the *.orig pattern from .gitignore to avoid this and help keep the source tree clean. Signed-off-by: Laurent Pinchart --- As this has been in the tree for so long and appears not to have botherd anyone, I have a strong feeling I've overlooked something and this patch will be rejected. I've actually had that feeling for a few years already, and today I decided that maybe everybody else used the exact same reasoning, explaining why the annoying *.orig pattern is still in .gitignore. --- .gitignore | 1 - 1 file changed, 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/.gitignore b/.gitignore index 7902adf4f7f1..58fdbb35e2f1 100644 --- a/.gitignore +++ b/.gitignore @@ -142,7 +142,6 @@ GTAGS # id-utils files ID =20 -*.orig *~ \#*# =20 base-commit: 8400291e289ee6b2bf9779ff1c83a291501f017b --=20 Regards, Laurent Pinchart
