So do you used Module::Starter ?

The short documentation of the module says: 

The ignores_type is a new feature that allows one to create SCM-specif
+ic ignore files. These are the mappings:

ignores_type => 'generic'  # default, creates 'ignore.txt'
ignores_type => 'cvs'      # creates .cvsignore
ignores_type => 'git'      # creates .gitignore
ignores_type => 'hg'       # creates .hgignore
ignores_type => 'manifest' # creates MANIFEST.SKIP

Go canonical and use my guide ;)

PS the above module ships with the module-starter program inside /bin and this is the suggested method to follow. The program has the option --ignores=type the sets the above mentioned ignores_type internal option. It defaults to txt creating ignore.txt

There are no rules, there are no thumbs..
