This is a feature. If you still have old tarballs in your checkout, they 
should be ignored as well as the current ones. There is a reason fedpkg
new-sources does NOT remove old entries from .gitignore. .gitignore should 
only ever be added to, not removed from (unless something that actually 
belongs into git got added there by mistake, of course).
