[feature request] Automatically add .gitignore to project

[micha]

I’m often transferring projects between my laptop and my desktop system. As it is not always clear which files are necessary to be transferred or will automatically be generated, I’m a bit in the dark of what the gitignore should contain, and I just leave everything in. Causing the uploads to git to be quite substantial. I’m also not really sure which things should be included or left out with each different visualGDB project. Am I cross-compiling, using cmake, ninja, embedded …Of course a tutorial on the different kind of projects and their gitignore would be helpful, but it would save even more time if a gitignore would automatically be added. Seeing as it is only a few kB and it can be “always right” when it’s generated with the creation of the project.

Regards,

Mic

No problem, we actually do have a tutorial explaining the roles of various files and a recommended .gitignore setup. Please feel free to look through it: https://visualgdb.com/tutorials/arm/multiuser/
