* without . the auto directory is still considered for commits

* small addition that ensures all Emacs-Lisp files (.el files) are ignored

The presentation software pdfpc [1] (which is handy for latex beamer slides) supports additional notes on the secondary screen provided by *.pdfpc files.
These can be autogenerated from latex documents with the pdfpcnotes package [2], thus should be ignored in a latex project (but not in others where they could have been created manually).

minitoc also generates .stc, .slf, and .slt files

- .soc - package changes
- .spl - documentclass elsarticle (Elsevier journals)

The `endnotes` package generates `*.ent` files. These should also be
ignored.

Add missing beamer temporary file extension

Added a line that adds the `auto` folder that Emacs+ AUCTex automatically creates in the gitignore list. 

More about this `auto` feature below

On Windows, when PDF is opened with Acrobat Reader, one gets following output:

    ! I can't write on file `document.pdf'.
    Please type another file name for output:

If one simply presses "Enter" to continue, the file `.pdf` is generated. Since this is a common case and `.pdf` is never used as full file name, this file should be ignored, too.

Add support for easy-todo package (that produces .lod file during the compilation)

When we use 'thmtools' package for creating 'List of Theorems', auxiliary file '.loe' is created, just as '.toc' for 'Table of Contents' and '.lof' for 'List of Figures'.

Latexian adds some additional temporary files, which are not required for building the project. Therefore they are better left out as well

A precompiled header(`latex -ini`) compiled creates a `.fmt` file.
To speed up xypic's drawing, precompiled matrices are created with the `\CompileMatrices` entry in the preamble. This creates `*.xyc` files.

[cprotect](https://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/cprotect?lang=en) tracks its contents in an auxiliary file, this is safe to ignore.

The pdfcomment package generates *.upa and *.upb files when compiling LaTeX files. These should be ignored as well.

endfloat.sty produces these two auxiliary files.
From Section 3.2 of its documentation:
> Loading it will have LTEX produce two extra files with .ttt and .fff extensions (for tables and figures, respectively).

As per http://tex.stackexchange.com/q/258515/828

reledmac use one individual file by series of endnotes : .Aend, .Bend, .Cend etc. See the changelog in reledmac handbook or https://github.com/maieul/ledmac/commit/7fedc07f5bf2af21c86a237957790cb6fdce78a7#diff-60c898960cc69e6fde87e84ddef7d910R11391

TikZ uses *.auxlock files to check if the main *.aux file is available.
This is only used when using the external tikz library.

When using TikZ & PGF with:
`\usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{external} \tikzexternalize`
It creates .dpth and .md5 files for the externalized tikzpictures.

When using minitoc package, LateX often generates multiple .mtc files such as `*.mtc0`, `*.mtc1`, ..., `*.mtc13`, ... This patch allows one to ignore all *.mtc files from index 0 to index 99 (ignoring `*.mtc[1-9][0-9]`).

WinEdt (a popular TEX editor for windows) uses files "*.bak" for backup and "*.sav" for autosave.
