Respect global .gitignore when searching #59364

@vanossj

Description

@vanossj

The global .gitignore file, aka git config core.excludesfile setting should be used when searching, just like the local .gitignore file is.

Currently files/folders will be ignored if they are in the local .gitignore, but not if they are only in the global git ignore.

#49239 asked about this feature, but it was incorrectly closed.
