History of !gitignore_whitedir

• A global/directory .gitignore blacklist with a (potentially) subdirectory whitelist is not easy to specify in git. However, something like `printf '%s\n' '/*' '!/a/' '/a/*' '!/a/b/' '/a/b/*' '!/a/b/c/' > .gitignore` (ignore everything but a/b/c directory) or `printf '%s\n' '*' '!*/' '!*.txt' > .gitignore` (ignore everything but *.txt files) may do what you want.
