I just did my first cautios steps in playing with the new repo and bzr, and I was wondering whether it's really a good idea to put the file .bzrignore under version control. For after checking out trunk and compiling, I've ended up with a lot of files that are neither under version control nor currently present in .bzrignore and thus totally clutter the output of 'bzr status'. But if I add them to ..bzrignore then I need to be careful not accidentally commit the file (because surely we don't want every developer to add more stuff to ..bzrignore which may only be relevant to his/her specific checkout). So wouldn't it be better to not provide a 'central' .bzrignore file and let the developers create local ones instead if desired?
I think that there should be one under version control. But, you can also add local entries to your own Bazaar directory if you'd like. It's in ~/.bazaar/ignore
