The task requires updating the .gitignore file to exclude build-generated files and local-specific files from being tracked in the repository. The proposed changes include adding entries for common build directories, log files, temporary files, and local environment files. This ensures that only relevant source code and necessary files are tracked, keeping the repository clean and reducing potential conflicts.
How to implement
Identify Build-Generated Files: These are files and directories created during the build process, such as dist/, build/, *.log, and *.tmp.
Identify Local-Specific Files: These are files specific to a developer's local environment, such as *.env, *.local, and system-specific files like *.DS_Store.
Update the .gitignore File: Add the identified files and directories to the .gitignore file.
Here is the updated .gitignore file with the necessary additions:
This updated .gitignore file should now effectively exclude build-generated files, local-specific files, and other unnecessary files from being tracked in the repository.

Changes on .gitignore
To address the task of updating the `.gitignore` file to remove build-generated files and local-specific files, we need to ensure that the file includes entries for common build directories, log files, temporary files, and local environment files. Here is a concrete proposal for updating the `.gitignore` file: 1. **Build-Generated Files**: - Add entries for common build directories and files such as `dist/`, `build/`, `*.log`, and `*.tmp`. 2. **Local-Specific Files**: - Add entries for local environment files such as `*.env`, `*.local`, and system-specific files like `*.DS_Store`. Here is the updated `.gitignore` file with the necessary additions: ```gitignore # Byte-compiled / optimized / DLL files __pycache__/ *.py[cod] *$py.class # C extensions *.so # Distribution / packaging .Python build/ develop-eggs/ dist/ downloads/ eggs/ .eggs/ lib/ lib64/ parts/ sdist/ var/ wheels/ pip-wheel-metadata/ share/python-wheels/ *.egg-info/ .installed.cfg *.egg MANIFEST # PyInstaller *.manifest *.spec # Installer logs pip-log.txt pip-delete-this-directory.txt # Unit test / coverage reports htmlcov/ .tox/ .nox/ .coverage .coverage.* .cache nosetests.xml coverage.xml *.cover *.py,cover .hypothesis/ .pytest_cache/ tmp.Dockerfile my-chart/ # Translations *.mo *.pot # Django stuff: *.log local_settings.py db.sqlite3 db.sqlite3-journal # Flask stuff: instance/ .webassets-cache # Scrapy stuff: .scrapy # Sphinx documentation docs/_build/ # PyBuilder target/ # Jupyter Notebook .ipynb_checkpoints # IPython profile_default/ ipython_config.py # pyenv .python-version # PEP 582; used by e.g. github.com/David-OConnor/pyflow __pypackages__/ # Celery stuff celerybeat-schedule celerybeat.pid # SageMath parsed files *.sage.py # Spyder project settings .spyderproject .spyproject # Rope project settings .ropeproject # mkdocs documentation /site # mypy .mypy_cache/ .dmypy.json dmypy.json # Pyre type checker .pyre/ # Environments .env .venv env/ venv/ ENV/ env.bak/ venv.bak/ production.env # Misc .vscode/settings.json .azure .ssweb.code-workspace node_modules # Azure Artifacts __azurite_db_blob__.json __azurite_db_blob_extent__.json __azurite_db_queue__.json __azurite_db_queue_extent__.json __blobstorage__ __queuestorage__ # BFG Jar Files bfg-*.jar bfg-*.jar:Zone.Identifier # Log Files logs/ # Miscellaneous and Temporary Files 'New folder' *.code-workspace kompose.exe kubectl.sha256 kubescape-* workflow-designtime/ get_helm.sh Secrets/ javascript/ .ignore/ # Node Modules node_modules openapi.yaml .azdo/ .devcontainer/ fetemplate/ tfc-getting-started/ # Large Files or Directories # Add any other large files or directories here # Docker and Kubernetes Artifacts # Add specific build artifacts or configuration files here # Build Artifacts and Compiled Code # Add any build artifacts or compiled code here tfc-getting-started #amplify-do-not-edit-begin amplify/\#current-cloud-backend amplify/.config/local-* amplify/logs amplify/mock-data amplify/mock-api-resources amplify/backend/amplify-meta.json amplify/backend/.temp build/ dist/ node_modules/ aws-exports.js #awsconfiguration.json amplifyconfiguration.json amplifyconfiguration.dart amplify-build-config.json amplify-gradle-config.json amplifytools.xcconfig .secret-* **.sample graphql-server/ #amplify-do-not-edit-end *buildConfig.json spark-2.3.1-bin-hadoop2.7/ .sourcery.yaml .pre-commit-config.yaml .env* .flaskenv* !.env.project !.env.vault NFL-Stats/ nextjs-container/ /backend-container/src/Schema/NFL_v7/*.py /backend-container/src/Schema/NFL_v7/*.json /backend-container/Tests/ DeviceSyncApp/ NFL-Stats-FastAPI/ WSL2-Linux-Kernal/ amdgpu-install_5.3.50300-1_all.deb amdgpu-install_6.0.60000-1_all.deb amdgpu-install_6.0.60000-1_all.deb.1 Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh.1 Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh.2 linux-6.7.1.tar.xz/ activate_conda.sh 59db6113-3c92-4909-8abe-0637206250d7 59db6113-3c92-4909-8abe-0637206250d7:Zone.Identifier AML/ WSL2-Linux-Kernal/ .history/ .vite-insptect/ # macOS specific files .DS_Store .AppleDouble .LSOverride # Thumbnails ._* # Files that might appear on external disks .Spotlight-V100 .Trashes # Directories potentially created on remote AFP share .AppleDB .AppleDesktop Network Trash Folder Temporary Items .apdisk ``` This updated `.gitignore` file should now effectively exclude build-generated files, local-specific files, and other unnecessary files from being tracked in the repository.
