I have no strong opinion on this change, but typically, to avoid a
proliferation of patterns with everyone's favourite editor settings, it
can be useful if each individual user sets their own editor files in
~/.config/git/ignore (or core.excludesFile, if you prefer a different
location).  For example, I do this with Vim-related files, and it
applies to all repos on my system, such that other developers don't have
to care what editor I use.

However, Eclipse is a popular editor, so it may be that Junio really
likes this change since it will benefit many people.
