Re: Using make_ctags leaves tags files in git

Hello Michael,

On the previous patch:

- `.*.swp` was added, which I entirely agree shouldn't be in .gitignore as
it's editor specific(despite me using vim).
- The discussion dabbled too much around the *.swp addition.

In this case I just propose adding 'tags'. I believe it's reasonable to
ignore these as they're produced by make_ctags.

Best regards,
Steve
