Config to ignore bad_ideas #67

I have a case where a submodule not under my control has a bad_idea (an autogenerated file in VCS). I would like to be able to use check-manifest as part of an acceptance test suite, but there seems to be no way to tell it to just grumble silently and ignore this one file. Would you welcome a patch that created an option similar to ignore for this, perhaps named ignore_bad_ideas? Is there some easy workaround?

That sounds like a good idea.

It'll also help with #38.

  patterns like --ignore.
