Parsing Gitignore

The concept of .gitignore is great.

For one of my projects I needed something similar and of course there was an implementation on CPAN.

I started out using Parse::Gitignore. Unfortunately it did not really solve my problem. Luckily there was an alternative, which suited my needs better: Text::Gitignore.

If you want to see my implementation using it in action, check my Yak project implementation in Perl.
