[Python-modules-team] Bug#947509: Please ignore .git directory by default

[Enrico Zini]

Package: codespell
Version: 1.16.0-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

I wanted to try out codespell. I thought: "this code is in git, so I'll
just run it, and see from the diff what I need to tweak".

Then codespell started correcting spelling in files inside .git, and I
found myself with a broken repository.

I suggest that the contents of .git directories, or version control
system directories in general, should by default, or always, be skipped.
