gitignore.txt: change "folder" to "directory"
We prefer "directory" over "folder" when discussing the file system concept. Change this instance for consistency -- indeed, even within this paragraph, we already use "directory". Signed-off-by: Martin Ågren <martin.agren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

EXAMPLES
--------
- - The pattern `hello.*` matches any file or folder
+ - The pattern `hello.*` matches any file or directory
whose name begins with `hello.`. If one wants to restrict
this only to the directory and not in its subdirectories,
one can prepend the pattern with a slash, i.e. `/hello.*`;
