I put .gitignore in the root directory A. The subtree is the following:

A/B/bin
A/C/bin
A/D/E/bin
A/F/G/bin

All bin are folders. I want to ignore all their content and subdirectories.

By writing this line in .gitignore

bin/

will they be all ignored?

Use `bin/` instead. Also, you could simply try it out… – poke Aug 24 '16 at 08:41
