Back when .gitignore file was added to arch/powerpc/ in 06f2138 ([POWERPC] Add files build to .gitignore, 2006-11-26), there indeed was nothing tracked in the ignored hierarchy and ignoring everything made sense. But we have very many tracked files there these days, and having a higher level .gitignore that ignores everything is asking for future troubles..
This should have been part of b8b572e (powerpc: Move include files to arch/powerpc/include/asm, 2008-08-01).

Is it intended? I dunno.
I looked at this a bit more and now I know this was not intended.
