Delete Branch "add_gitignore"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Why not use a command like
to modify only files that have been added?
I don't follow. This commit adds a single file.

Yes it does. If I may ask, why are we adding it?
Obviously to not include *.pyc files in the repository. :)
But there are other files that we won't want to add either: especially *.dat files if the user turns on portable mode. I also have a large variety of extraneous files that I have made over time that I wouldn't want to add either. Why should we specify files to ignore when we can instead specify files to add? It seems much less error prone.
Jonathan Warren:
It makes the "git status" output show only the things you need to
care about.
It is easy to forget to add a new file to revision control when there
are a lot of extra files laying around.
Having a .gitignore file is a common practice.
