I’m trying to collect some of my default settings, and one thing I realized I don’t have a standard for is .gitignore files. There’s a great thread showing a good .gitignore for Visual Studio projects, but I don’t see many recommendations for Python and related tools (PyGTK, Django).
So far, I have…
*.pyc
*.pyo
…for the compiled objects and…
build/
dist/
…for the setuptools output.
What are some best practices for .gitignore files, and where can I go for more about these best practices?
