Description

Deliverables

It makes sense for us to generate the .gitignore file here as the build is what determines (most) of the ignored files.

Let's use the 'edit-section' project so we can deal smartly with existing .gitignore files.

Deliverables

  • implement handling of creating a new file; use edit-section here too so that users can add their own config later
  • handle existing file, use edit section (it's OK if we end up duplicating ignores)

Research direction

Start by examining how the build determines ignored files and how the edit-section project is used. Implement generation for both a new .gitignore and an existing file, preserving a section where users can add configuration; done means both deliverables work without preventing custom entries.
