Summary: This PR fixes the issue #12237 relative to react-native-git-upgrade. When the user adds new files to the .gitignore file, those files are deleted during the upgrade process because it starts by creating a fresh .gitignore file without user's modification, so the user's ignored files are no longer ignored and they are deleted during the upgrading process. The best solution I've found to keep the user's ignored files... ignored, consists in appending the content of the .gitignore file in the `<TEMP DIR>/.git-rn/info/exclude` file. The user's ignored files are now ignored at the repository level, they no longer interfere with the upgrade process. Reminder: The tool uses a temporary local Git repository generated on the fly, so we can do whatever we want in it. - Publish react-native-git-upgrade to sinopia - `npm install -g react-native-git-upgrade` - Init a new project with an old version: `react-native init MyApp --version=0.50.0` - Create a new file named `dummy-ignored-file.json` in the project's root - Append `dummy-ignored-file.json` to the `.gitignore` file - Run `react-native-git-upgrade` 👉 The `dummy-ignored-file.json` is not deleted.

React Native Git Upgrade
This tool makes upgrading your apps to a new version of React Native easier than the stock react-native upgrade
command.
It uses Git under the hood to automatically resolve merge conflicts in project templates (native iOS and Android files, .flowconfig
etc.). These conflicts happen when a new React Native version introduces changes to those files and you have local changes in those files too, which is quite common.
Usage
See the Upgrading docs on the React Native website.
Basic usage:
$ npm install -g react-native-git-upgrade
$ cd MyReactNativeApp
$ react-native-git-upgrade
