Oh no no no.

You're creating a binary file from your build or something like that:

>  modules.builtin.modinfo                            | Bin 0 -> 46064 bytes

which is completely unacceptable.

I have no idea what you're doing, but this kind of "random garbage in
git commits" is not going to fly. And the fact that you're adding
random files really means that you are doing something *horribly*
wrong.
