They're not needed and they're already in our .gitignore :)

You'll need to rebuild the website after adding your language to
ikiwiki*.setup.

For now, do whatever is the most convenient for you, e.g. push your
ikiwiki*.setup changes to your Git repo and you'll revert that once
your branch is ready to be merged upstream.

You're in the exact right place!
