Hello, and thanks for your contribution!

I'm a bot set up to make sure that the project can legally accept your contribution by verifying you have signed thePSF contributor agreement (CLA).

Unfortunately we couldn't find an account corresponding to your GitHub username onbugs.python.org (b.p.o) to verify you have signed the CLA. This is necessary for legal reasons before we can look at your contribution. Please follow these steps to help rectify the issue:

1. If you don't have an account on b.p.o, pleasecreate one
2. Make sure your GitHub username is listed in "Your Details" at b.p.o
3. If you have not already done so, please sign thePSF contributor agreement
4. If you just signed the CLA, pleasewait at least a day and then check "Your Details" onbugs.python.org to see if your account has been marked as having signed the CLA (the delay is due to a person having to manually check your signed CLA)
5. Reply here saying you have completed the above steps

Thanks again to your contribution and we look forward to looking at it!

note you can also set that globally on your system :

$ cat ~/.gitconfig# This is Git's per-user configuration file.[core]excludesfile = $HOME/.gitignore

Which allow you to not patch every project you contribute to.

Compared to the old .hgignore, .gitignore lacks more files:

BuildLog.htm.DS_StoreInclude/pydtrace_probes.hlcov-report/Misc/*.wpuTools/unicode/build/Tools/unicode/MAPPINGS/

I don't know these files, so I don't know if it's ok to add them as well.

For .DS_Store (used by macOS): it seems like Git ignores it by default, which is a good idea ;-)

We just rejected a patch to add Eclipse's project dir (bpo-29510), so I'm closing this as well.

Thanks for contributing, though!

We do probably need to update .gitignore, though.
