Hi there,

I realize that it's good practice to manually sanitize and remove github junk, although sometimes it isn't clear what should be removed. (I think it is mostly harmless if you don't?)

If there are no instructions I usually try to extract a prior version to examine what is included and check the commits to see what was updated to include the relevant goods.

There are probably way too many variables to do this effectively, but I was under the impression the github software actually has some kind of exclusion file it reads to automatically cull redundancies.

What do you think? It's probably beyond the scope but since this extension is relatively unknown and nobody is posting ideas, I figured I'd toss some at you. lol

P.S.

By the way, I don't use the github software, me no gusta background rubbish running and I'm not a developer I just like to be on the bleeding edge with developer extensions.
