Since
.gitignore
is presented & maintained for this repo, probably it should be updated due to some recent changes & due to actualization of the content:ci/artefacts
byscripts/ci/artefacts
due to recent root directory refactoringsite/
directory for locally generated static docs byMkDocs
GNU Global
,ctags
, andcscope
What is the current behavior?
Current behavior of
git
may not be reliable for such files and/or directorys assite/
,scripts/ci/artefacts
, etc. Plus, since.gitignore
mentions all main IDEs and their configuration files, adding popular source code tag files may be reasonable as well.What is the new behavior (if this is a feature change)?
With new behavior
git
should ignore explicitly such files assite/
,scripts/ci/artefacts
,tags
,GTAGS
,cscope
, etc.Other information:
P.S. I guess once a Pull-Request is merged & closed, a user may not receive notifications for new comments. If so, I would like to ask to look at this comment which may be not seen yet (and the one just above). Thanks :)
