Could you reproduce the steps you tried? Because I have checked, and
putting .xvpics or .xvpics/ in top level .gitignore (or in
.git/info/excludes, or ~/.gitignore) works as expected: filename
without '/' in it is match agains _basename_.
Note that .gitignore is about contents which is not tracked (not known
to git). If you added .xvpics to commit by accident, .gitignore will
do nothing then.
