Description
I just created a new package deployer project using pac package init and realised that a .gitignore file was not created. pac plugin init and pac pcf init both create .gitignore. It would be good if a .gitignore was also created for packages.
Here's the .gitignore created for plugins
# See https://help.github.com/articles/ignoring-files/ for more about ignoring files.
# msbuild output directories
/bin
/obj
# vs intermediate directory
/.vs
Occurs in pac 1.17.5
