No TeX users are "normal" by most definitions, so I don't
think this discussion will go anywhere useful :). In my
opinion, though, ignoring directories which don't have a
leading . is more trouble than it's worth.
FWIW, I kept all TeX files from my dissertation under CVS,
and the CVS directories have 3 files: Entries, Repository,
and Root. My guess is that those would not affect search
performance significantly. I can't speak for RCS, since
I've never used it directly.
