Yeah. I don't see the harm in it if Robert (or some other git user)
will contract to maintain them. I know that I regularly forget to
deal with .cvsignore files until I see a cvs notice, so there's no
way that they'll be kept up to date without such feedback.
Probably eventually we'll be on git and this will be moot, but that
doesn't seem to be ready to happen.
