ignore.conf and .gitignore

They don't have the same syntax, so it would be nice to have a conversion method (.gitignore -> ignore.conf) taking recursively into account all the .gitignore files in the source tree. In fact, I wanted to try :) but I've not been able to find a detailed syntax of ignore.conf...

    I would like to see feature parity, .gitignore is a de-facto worldwide standard, and their glob notation is intuitive and powerful.

    Something like this ought to work in PlasticSCM, yet it doesn't even preserve the comments :(

    ```
    # Ignore the Cache-file since it is updated locally either way
    /[Aa]ssets/**/FMODStudioCache.asset
    /[Aa]ssets/**/FMODStudioCache.asset.meta
    /[Aa]ssets/Plugins/FMOD/Cache.meta
    /[Aa]ssets/Plugins/FMOD/Cache/Editor.meta
    ```

    Another option could be to support .gitignore in-place of ignore.conf.
