Bug#805514: gitignore in sources ignores needed file

[Daniel Baumann]

Package: systemd
Version: 228-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

the top-level .gitignore file excludes all *.html files. This makes
src/journal-remote/browse.html being excluded, which is a needed file.

Therefore, importing systemd source package as-is into git results in an
incomplete source tree that fails to build from source.

It would be nice if e.g. something like this:

---snip---
!*.html
---snap---

could be added to src/journal-remote/.gitignore so that
src/journal-remote/browse.html is included again.

Regards,
Daniel
