[PATCH v2] scripts/gdb: add constants.py to .gitignore

[PATCH v2] scripts/gdb: add constants.py to .gitignore

[Omar Sandoval]

From: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com>

Since scripts/gdb/linux/constants.py is autogenerated, this should have
been added to .gitignore when it was introduced.

Fixes: f197d75fcad1 ("scripts/gdb: provide linux constants")

Thanks, Kieran, I totally missed the comment in top-level .gitignore.

Does this work with '/' at the beginning of the line?
It looks like all the other sub-tree .gitignores don't use a leading /
on their ignores

If you're happy, I'd like to drop the leading '/'.

(I think I can do this silently as I pick the patch if you approve,
rather than send another patch for a one-byte change)

Other than that:

Yeah, it should still be relative to the path containing the .gitignore:

----
$ mkdir test
$ cd test
$ git init
Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/test/.git/
$ mkdir foo
$ touch foo/bar
$ git add foo/bar
$ git commit -m "Initial commit"
[master (root-commit) c9075695cce0] Initial commit
 1 file changed, 0 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
 create mode 100644 foo/bar
$ touch asdf foo/asdf
$ git status
On branch master
Untracked files:
  (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)

        asdf
        foo/asdf

nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)
$ echo "/asdf" > foo/.gitignore
$ git add foo/.gitignore
$ git commit -m "Test"
[master dc92ad57d7e8] Test
 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
 create mode 100644 foo/.gitignore
$ git status
On branch master
Untracked files:
  (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)

        asdf

nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)
----

tools/thermal/tmon/.gitignore also uses the leading slash.

If you want to drop the /, I'm okay with it.

Aha yes,

find -name .gitignore -exec grep -Hin '^/' {} \;
./tools/thermal/tmon/.gitignore:1:/tmon
./.gitignore:44:/tags
./.gitignore:45:/TAGS
./.gitignore:46:/linux
./.gitignore:47:/vmlinux
./.gitignore:48:/vmlinux.32
./.gitignore:49:/vmlinux-gdb.py
./.gitignore:50:/vmlinuz
./.gitignore:51:/System.map
./.gitignore:52:/Module.markers
./.gitignore:57:/debian/
./.gitignore:62:/tar-install/

I think we'll call this the exception rather than the norm, and I'd
prefer to match the other 177 .gitignore files in their style.

Thanks for the testing, and checking.
Patch picked, and '/' silently dropped.
