What are gitignore and gitconfig for?
Are these files not used anymore?

hidehiro98 commented

I got these files are linked with symbolic links in home directory by install.sh.
But where is the command like git config --global core.excludesfile ~/.gitignore?

I checked the git config with git config --list | grep core.

core.pager=less -FRSX
core.editor='/Applications/Sublime Text.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl' -n -w
core.autocrlf=input

It looks gitignore file is not used as a global config for git.

You're right, I'll remove the gitignore file.
