NAK. I'd like to see what is polluting my repositories, not ignoring it because that's the policy of someone else. Excluding *.rej is something I would _never_ do. If they lie around somewhere, something was not merged here - that's my policy. You are free to set your own core.excludefile. So please do not spread this to generic .gitignores.
