Instead of adding this file to each and every software project .gitignore, why 
not why not add it to your local $HOME/.config/git/ignore file? See 
core.excludesfile in the git-config(1) man page.

I'll let the maintainer decide on that. But I think it would be much easier 
for you to set $HOME/.config/git/ignore once, and solve the problem for all 
your git trees.

Just my 2ยข.
