The current .gitignore file in our GitHub repository requires improvement to better manage the version control and avoid unnecessary files and directories from being committed. This issue aims to update and enhance the .gitignore file to ensure the repository remains clean and organized.
Description:
The current .gitignore file in our GitHub repository requires improvement to better manage the version control and avoid unnecessary files and directories from being committed. This issue aims to update and enhance the .gitignore file to ensure the repository remains clean and organized.
Goals:
Review the existing .gitignore file and identify areas for improvement.
Update the .gitignore file to exclude files and directories that should not be tracked by Git.
Include commonly ignored files and directories specific to our project and development environment.
Ensure that sensitive or personal information is not accidentally committed to the repository.
Consider platform-specific files, build artifacts, editor configurations, temporary files, and other files that do not belong in the repository.
Document the changes made to the .gitignore file and provide an explanation for each exclusion.
Additional Details:
We should pay attention to the project's specific requirements, programming languages, frameworks, and development tools when modifying the .gitignore file.
Carefully consider any file or directory that is generated during the development or build process and should not be included in the repository.
Be mindful of excluding any sensitive or confidential information that should not be exposed or shared publicly.
It's important to maintain a balance between excluding unnecessary files and ensuring that important files are not accidentally ignored.
Acceptance Criteria:
The .gitignore file is updated with appropriate exclusions to ensure a clean and organized repository.
Files and directories that should not be tracked by Git are properly ignored.
Sensitive or personal information is not included in the repository.
The documentation clearly explains the changes made to the .gitignore file and justifies each exclusion.
