When adding a new source file to a repo, rpkg updates .gitignore to ignore the tarball name. It would be nice if it also added an entry to ignore the tarball's top level directory so that a make prep does not cause a huge number of untracked files to show up in git status or git gui.
This is similar to #355, but .gitignore is the right place to ignore the directory name.
.gitignore
The top level directory should be directory extracted from tarball. For example, tar xvf ed-1.14.2.tar.xz will generate directory ed-1.14.2.
tar xvf ed-1.14.2.tar.xz
ed-1.14.2
