Dave,
I would think that would help a lot.
I have been experimenting with a top level .gitignore with contents as follows. /.ptp-sync /*/.gitignore /*/*/.gitignore /*/*/*/.gitignore /*/*/*/*/.gitignore More lines with more '*/' might be added. This makes the .gitignore disappear from command line "git status" and Egit project manager display as desired.
At least that is a work around until the feature request is implemented.
To make this a general solution I guess that the non top level .gitignore should be renamed into .ignore_me and corresponding entries /*.../.ignore_me should be added to the top level .gitignore. This would leave the name .gitignore available to those users using .gitignore for their own purposes.
Would that be a feasible extension of your feature request ? --
