Updating the .gitignore file

The .gitignore used in this repository was created with generic exclusions from gitignore.io, with project-specific exclusions listed afterwards.

If you want to add exclusions for new programming languages and/or IDEs, use the first line to recreate the generic exclusions from gitignore.io. Add all other project-specific exclusions afterwards.

.gitignore in the {{ cookiecutter.repo_name }} folder

If you’re changing any pre-commit hooks, note that .gitignore can be different to {{ cookiecutter.repo_name }}/.gitignore. This includes which folders, and files are excluded.

It’s strongly recommended that you build an example project to test out your changes.
