There is an updated pull request by paper42 against master on the void-packages repository

https://github.com/paper42/void-packages new-gitignore
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/41383

.gitignore: explicitly allow paths
This prevents git from picking up masterdirs that don't happen to be named the usual way and more custom and temporary files that should not be tracked by git.

A patch file from https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/41383.patch is attached
