I found I have this file not being ignored and a quick search shows these files :/

Windows Azure -> Microsoft Azure. Due to https://azure.microsoft.com/sv-se/blog/upcoming-name-change-for-windows-azure/

Ignore Azure ApplicationInsights.config in VisualStudio.gitignore

The authoring of NuGet packages quite often include `build` folders, and when this is .gitignore'd it's very often the source of bugs in files that don't get checked in.

I've never seen a Visual Studio project that builds to a `build` folder (`bin` is the default name). As this is a Visual Studio template file, and we have real projects that include `build` folders that include source code, I recommend we remove suppression of this folder.

StyleCop.Analyzers is the modern re-invention of StyleCop, and uses a StyleCop.json file that the default .gitignore file made very difficult to check in, and easy to think was checked in but isn't.
See https://github.com/DotNetAnalyzers/StyleCopAnalyzers/blob/32057fff82adf7cfb92aa50aef69a6b030eedf31/documentation/Configuration.md#source-control for the documented case.

Looking through history, this line was last touched to make it case insensitive, and before that the line was in the original VisualStudio.gitignore file, without justification for why it should ignore all file extensions. From my experience with stylecop, the only file I remember it creating was stylecop.cache. I would change `[Ss]tyle[Cc]op.*` to `[Ss]tyle[Cc]op.cache` but there is already a line for suppressing all *.cache files (which wasn't there when the stylecop line was originally added). So I believe this line is now obsolete, and as I explain above, actually problematic.

Recent versions of FAKE uses a cache folder containing a compiled version of all scripts named .fake that should never be commited to git.

Added ignore as recomended in http://fsprojects.github.io/Paket/getting-started.html

Ignoring directory "efc" and "rfc" created by the Windows Azure Emulator

Directory before starting emulator the first time:

In Windows Phone 8 development each profiler session generates a new .sap file, which is automatically added to the root of the project. This is an XML manifest describing the detailed profiler logs created in the PerfLogs folder.

There are use cases where you have gulp/grunt tasks that create the static files of a project from bower_components, images, scripts folders.

As discussed in #1505
