@o11c why remove most of the the .gitignore?
@o11c I think this is ready to merge other than the .gitignore part (CLion is my IDE, that's why the IntelliJ stuff is there). BUT into the dev branch.
It is wrong to use a project's .gitignore for user-specific backup/configuration files - it should only contain patterns for things that can be made using the Makefile.
You should instead add those patterns to either ~/.gitignore or .git/info/exclude.
Note: it's actually ~/.config/git/ignore
by default these days.
Back in the days when there was no default, ~/.gitignore
was the recommendation for core.excludesFile
@o11c I'm going to merge because there aren't any problems
Currently not attempt to do any distribution - whether single-header or
make install
.Tests will likely change somewhat when we use a real test harness.
