Change exist method for gitignore

-Fix typo in the ignore_configuration method

This pull request fixes a typo in the ignore_configuration method of the project's codebase. The current implementation uses File.exists? to check if a .gitignore file exists, which should be replaced with File.exist? for consistency with Ruby's standard library.

I have tested this change on my local machine and confirmed that it resolves the issue.

I have the same issue and this looks like a good fix

This would fix on new versions but maybe crash on older versions, i think you should check the RUBY_VERSION, because old ruby versions still use .exists?

Any chance of this being merged soon? Have to work with a fork otherwise.

Thanks :)

A merge would be quite nice

The "exist?" method is also valid for old Ruby versions. The repository is using it in some files.
Can someone with access merge this PR to solve the issue?

I believe the new alternative in 7+ is Pathname.new(path_name).exist?

This was fixed in #294 so this PR can be closed.
