Aha yes,

find -name .gitignore -exec grep -Hin '^/' {} \;
./tools/thermal/tmon/.gitignore:1:/tmon
./.gitignore:44:/tags
./.gitignore:45:/TAGS
./.gitignore:46:/linux
./.gitignore:47:/vmlinux
./.gitignore:48:/vmlinux.32
./.gitignore:49:/vmlinux-gdb.py
./.gitignore:50:/vmlinuz
./.gitignore:51:/System.map
./.gitignore:52:/Module.markers
./.gitignore:57:/debian/
./.gitignore:62:/tar-install/

I think we'll call this the exception rather than the norm, and I'd
prefer to match the other 177 .gitignore files in their style.

Thanks for the testing, and checking.
Patch picked, and '/' silently dropped.
