As a novice maintainer I've been having hard time to understand how to exclude output build files from being committed to remote repository.
I've found this solution and thought it would help future folks.

Don't hesitate to close if not appropriate.

@ricmoo the thing is, .gitignore does not ignore files that are already in the repo... https://stackoverflow.com/a/45400404/504082
