[Bug-gsl] RFC: Combining SCM ignore files into only .bzrignores

[Rhys Ulerich]

Hi all,

Recently it's come up that bzr symlinks are problematic for folks
wanting to use the Windows bzr client.  It appears that the only
symlinks present in GSL's trunk are those for SCM ignore files.  E.g.,

./doc/.gitignore -> .cvsignore
./.gitignore -> .cvsignore
./gsl/.gitignore -> .cvsignore
./siman/.gitignore -> .cvsignore

Moreover, it looks like we've got ignore files for git, bzr, and cvs
in the source tree though we're only using bzr via savannah.

Any thoughts on...

A) Combining the ignore file content into only .bzrignore files?
B) Removing the symlinks in the source tree (which would be
unnecessary if we do A)?

Thanks,
Rhys
