Hey,

Thanks, I appreciate the response. It sounds like your main concern is the
overhead of maintaining the .gitignore file, is that right? Could that
potentially be mitigated by a clear writeup of what's included, why, and
then an easy way to close all other tickets? E.g. we could easily just use
github's Python default, declare that the policay, and call it day. Perhaps
that overhead would be no less than having to have this conversation over
and over again as it seems clear has already been happening.

As for the point that not everyone uses git, that's true, but according to
the latest SO survey it's used by 94% of respondents
<https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2022/#section-version-control-version-control-systems>.
That seems like a pretty solid majority to help support, no?

thanks,
Cory
