To speed up builds/deploys.

https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/slug-compiler#ignoring-files-with-slugignore

"""
If your repository contains files not necessary to run your app, you may wish to add these to a .slugignore file in the root of your repository. 

The format is roughly the same as .gitignore. 

The .slugignore file causes files to be removed after you push code to Heroku and before the buildpack runs. This lets you prevent large files from being included in the final slug. Unlike .gitignore, .slugignore does not support negated ! patterns.
"""

Current slug size: 80.7MB
