"Add to gitignore" should include "/" prefix

[TamaMcGlinn]

By default, you want to ignore specifically just that file you right-clicked in your changes; therefore, it should start with / so that it doesn't match any file or folder in your project that happens to have that name.

Not just /. / means root of working tree. If you put /myfile it will
match /myfile and not /other/myfile but what about /other2/myfile? We just
need a checkbox that alters it to generate a full path from / of working
directory.

I think it should add full path with / or only filename without path and /
