Keeping OS, IDE and local environment gitignores on your local machine #2

Closed szepeviktor closed 11 months ago

szepeviktor commented 11 months ago

A single .gitignore file cannot cover every OS, every IDE and every local environment. List your gitignores in a file: ~/.gitignore git config --global core.excludesFile ~/.gitignore will ignore all your local files in every project once and for all 🎉

I don't understand this. What is the problem with the .gitignore file?

What is the problem with the .gitignore file?

It tries to cover every OS, every IDE and every local environment. That is impossible 💥 All contributors should have their stuff ignored locally in ~/.gitignore.

The project's .gitignore file should cover only the project's ignored files.

This is a single ~/.gitignore file, you have to create once in your life.

git config --global core.excludesFile ~/.gitignore
