gitignore .github folder

having these files in the releases is unnecessary bloat

[staabm]

should I do the same for all other repos?

I'd like some automated way to have this checked, something that would check:

1. The list of all files and directories in the root
2. The list of files that's supposed to be in the release
3. The contents of .gitattributes and whether all the files in 1) are excluded from 2)

It's an opportunity for a new tool/GitHub action to check this :)

memo to me: the changes need to be in .gitattributes as ondrey pointed out

for a new tool/GitHub action to check this :)

I will see what I can do ;)
