Is this file even needed in git? If we're going to ignore all .conf files in here (needed for the symlink, I get that), is there anything from the platform we're going to put in here? The RPM spec can just create it on build and include it. We can get pulp-dev.py to create it as well instead of a symlink so that apache starts. Maybe there's other stuff that we'll put in here eventually that I'm missing, but it feels weird to have an intentionally empty dir in git.
