Oh woops, I accidentally thought this repo sbt-source-dist. I don't entirely agree with this change and thats because its actually considered bad practice to add IDE/editor specific files to `.gitignore`, the following are all good articles on the matter * https://dev.to/oleksiyrudenko/please-do-not-pollute-projects-gitignore-3h8e * https://tekin.co.uk/2020/03/maintain-a-global-git-ignore-file For example, if we are going to add `.idea` why don't we then add `.vscode` (a lot of people including myself use vscode for Scala projects), or `*~` for vim? Or what about `.DS_Store` for MacOS? https://github.com/apache/incubator-pekko/blob/main/.gitignore is actually a very good example of exactly why not to do this, that `.gitignore` file is atrociously large and needs to be pruned a bit. Ultimately IDE/Editor files/folders have nothing to do with the project, its a personal preference which means that the standard way to add IDE/editor specific files/folders is by using a [global gitignore](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7335420/global-git-ignore). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
