[PATCH] selftests/filesystems: Add .gitignore for fscontext_ns_test
Posted by Mahad Ibrahim 1 month, 1 week ago
fscontext_ns_test is listed in TEST_GEN_PROGS and is built in the
fscontext_ns directory, but the directory has no .gitignore. The binary
is thus left untracked by git after being compiled.

git status lists:

  Untracked files:
    (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
	  tools/testing/selftests/filesystems/fscontext_ns/fscontext_ns_test

Every test directory must include a .gitignore which contains all the
generated objects, as per the documentation and convention.

Add .gitignore to ignore fscontext_ns_test.
