I agree that IDE-specific files should be ignored in your global .gitignore, however, since I am maintaining oss projects for a while now, I also know that not all contributors do this. Just having all these files in the projects .gitignore
saves me a bit of work (and the mental burden of remembering to check).
I am open to be convinced otherwise if you can give me a good reason (better than the reason why keeping them in there) why they should not be in the projects .gitignore
If you change to global gitignore once with your IDE rules you won't have to bother anymore about it anymore - it's win-win situation. And if this will make a trouble to anyone maybe we can convince that contributor to start using global gitignore.
I fully agree wit this article: https://dev.to/oleksiyrudenko/please-do-not-pollute-projects-gitignore-3h8e
I am 👍🏻
Directories/files IDE specific should be handled with global .gitignore.
