Bikeshedding alert - I personally like having a single top-level
.gitignore for everything.  We don't live in CVS days where you had to
have per-directory ignores, and having one file is easier to maintain
(in the future, it's easier to know WHICH .gitignore to add a new entry
to if there is only ONE .gitignore).  I don't care enough to write the
patch myself, nor to care if you end up keeping the split .gitignore,
but if I did care, I'd be consolidating in the opposite direction (move
tests/.gitignore to the toplevel).
