[Bug 41661] New: add .o files to .gitignore

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41661

Bug ID: 41661
           Summary: add .o files to .gitignore
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.9.22
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: build-env
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
      Distribution: ---

The output of `git status` contains a lot of untracked `.o` files which make it
harder to get an overview of untracked files. It'd be nice if those were added
to `.gitignore`.

This is easily avoidable by building out-of-tree.

The .o files are added to .gitignore. There must be something broken with your
build.

Sometimes .o files seem to be missed by .gitignore. But this is easily fixed by
running 'git clean -f' from build root.

Are you sure those aren't from source files that have been removed since the .o
was generated?

No, I'm not sure. This happens so rarely that I never bother investigating
further.
