Perhaps, but generally speaking the files that don't need version
control don't belong in the repository.

In the Java development world, there is a similar issue with jar files
living in people's version control repositories. People sometimes store
them in the repository and it basically works, but as generated
artifacts, they don't really belong there. Modern build tools such as
Maven have introduced alternative infrastructure for holding build
products.
