don't use docmanager reload when opening gitignore (#759)

* don't use docmanager reload when opening gitignore

this would affect all open widgets, not just the gitignore
editor and could result in unsaved changes being lost

* Debug binder

* Turn off minimization

* All actions handle by the model

* remove unused import
