[llvm] r240973 - Simplify .gitignore: projects/* => projects/*/

[Chris Bieneman]

Was there a driving reason for this change or was this just to simplify things?

The reason I’m asking is because this is not functionally equivalent to what existed before. With this change, if you symlink projects under the projects folder the symlinks don’t get ignored by git.
