docs unclear on ignores_type config

[treyharris]

From reading the module-starter manpage, it sounds like the correct way to set up --ignores=... in a config file is as:

ignores: git manifest

when it should actually be

ignores_type: git manifest

I couldn't figure out why it wasn't working with just ignores: until I traced the code. I'd suggest clarifying that in the manual page. Thanks!

This is indeed unfortunate since all the command line parameters line up with the data structure names except for ignores => ignores_type.

I agree with this and I can see the confusion. So what is the preferred solution @xsawyerx , accept both ignores and ignores_type to be more user-friendly? Or spell it out in the docs better?
