All the times I just put docker-compose.yml to one user (my user) directory and call it a day.

But what about a service with multiple admins or with more horizontally split up load?

I do something similar, but I avoid gitignore at all costs because any secret data should have root read only permissions on it. Plus any data that is not version controlled goes in a common directory, so all I have to do is backup that directory and I'm good. It makes moving between machines easy if I ever need to do that.
