.gitignore

by

I’m launching a new site:

gitignore.com

For now it’s just a blog, but the final goal is different:

Every time I start a new project I hesitate to make the first commit: what should I commit and what shouldn’t I? Essentially, what should I put on .gitignore.

The goal of this site is to collet snippet of .gitignore that one should use depending on what framework, software, libraries, etc. are being used. I’ll try to put the ones I’ll know, but please, if you know any, send me an email to pupeno@pupeno.com and I’ll publish (with attribution).

My final goal is to develop a small web application with a list of the frameworks (as checkboxes or something) from which you can pick and it’ll build the .gitignore. But I’ll only do it if this site gathers enough information.
