.gitignore and just backing up one application

[Tom Campbell]

Want to get version control right for this one. It will be just one item in the /applications directory, the /applications/init project. Some questions.

• Is there any reason to backup more than just /applications/init? I assume it is best simply to note the version of /web2py I'm using and back it up separately, correct (in case of the catastrophe that https://github.com/web2py/web2py/releases becames unavailable)
• Is this a good .gitignore assuming I only need to back up /applications/init?
