DescriptionAdd support for a .gclient_ignore which tells gclient to ignore versioning of a directory on a sync.
Behavior is exactly like having a .git file except that it won't interfere with git functionality. An example where this comes up is if you have all of WebKit checked out in a git repository, and swap out src/third_party/WebKit to point to the git version. Since some of the subdirectories under WebKit (eg., src/third_party/WebKit/JavaScriptCore) are specified as separate dependencies, gclient will attempt to update them, but they won't have a .git directory .
