Fixes issue excluding sub directories

This .gitignore is not correct. At least was not working for me.
Ignoring /media/* and then excluding !/media/customer/.htaccess is not
working. According to the Git manual, "It is not possible to re-include
a file if a parent directory of that file is excluded."
(https://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore).
