As such things are inherently local and specific to your own workflow,
IMHO they shouldn't go in the .gitignore in the repository.
Luckily -- unlike CVS -- Git offers another way to ignore stuff locally:
you can specify extra gitignore files in the configuration.
You can even do this globally for all your repositories. For that, add
to your ~/.gitconfig:
[core]
excludesfile = /home/<login>/.site.gitignore
and then create ~/.site.gitignore (or whatever name you prefer) with *~
and other local stuff you tend to have in your working trees.
