Add .idea to .gitignore #21

Closed sylv256 closed 4 years ago

sylv256 commented 4 years ago

Add .idea to the .gitignore file. This file can be annoying, so I'm adding it to the master branch.

Kneesnap commented 4 years ago

.idea is not in .gitignore because it contains information about the project like run configurations, as well as IntelliJ settings for people who clone it.

This is intentional, so this PR will not be merged.

If the .idea folder is correct as it is right now adding this to the .gitignore will prevent anyone from tampering with it. For example, it'll prevent accidentally adding anything in the directory to commits. These files change slightly based on user-dependent values in IntelliJ. For example, I have plugins that modify the files when I open the workspace.

Preventing tampering isn't necessarily something we want to prevent though, we want to be able to accept changes to them.
