  36 # What to track.
  37
  38 # There are 2 variants:
  39 # to put the patterns under version control
  40 # (so that anyone who gets the branch with this stuff can comfortably
  41 # use it with plain git, without my scripts):
  42 cp -v "$DATADIR"/gitignore .gitignore
  43
  44 # or:
  45 # to put the patterns not under version control
  46 # (so that there is no extra junk in the branch, but then
  47 # it's comfortable only if everyone uses this script for init):
  48 #cp -v "$DATADIR"/gitignore .git/info/exclude
  49
  50 # Don't forget to "git add .gitignore" afterwards...
  51
  52 # Let us create the initial commit,
  53 # operating without a HEAD is inconvenient in Git.
  54 git add .gitignore
  55 git commit -m 'Initialized for saving config; track only relevant .git/ files.'
