@dbraduan we might need to revert this, there are cases where people don't want to automatically have goose ignore git ignored files. wdyt? From a user below: Seems to me like those are different ignores with different purposes. This has been causing some annoyances for me, it seems cumbersome to create a blank local .gooseignore just to get it to not ignore anything. This is a kind of an anti-pattern for data workflows. I frequently work in a git repo and have .csv files gitignored because I don't want to be saving full datasets to the git history. Goose now can't interact with those. It also seems like even if I define a blank .gooseignore in the same directory, it still ignores everything from the .gitignore. |

Noticed that our .gitignore wasn't really respected, and saw goose has a bit different approach to determining it's .gooseignore.
Adding a fallback to .gitignore before fallback to default 3 patterns.
This is a bit of a breaking change for people who used this MCP without previously having
.gooseignore, but it's commonly used in other Agents:Alternatively, happy to hide this behavior under a config setting.
