I am not sure I am getting what you are pointing to... For extensions
that already have non-empty sql/ and expected/, they should have their
own ignore entries as sql/.gitignore and expected/.gitignore. The
point of the patch is to simplify the code tree of extensions that
need to keep empty sql/ and expected/, for example to be able to run
regression tests after a fresh repository clone for example.
