Sample .gitignore file for kinda typical rails app
Raw
gistfile1.rb
# What are .gitignore files for? Well, not everything should be stored in a repo.
# Typically your IDE files, log files, or database related stuff (like paperclip attachments in public/system)
.DS_Store # because Mac file system
/.rvmrc # when you have .rvmrc file with default rails and gemset
/.idea # RubyMine project stuff
/.bundle # Bundler temp stuff
/db/*.sqlite3 # DB file, when using sqlite
/config/database.yml # db config - this is probably the only line here, that not including is both bad practice and dangerous
/log/*.log # wanna store gigabytes of logs in repo? c'mon...
/tmp # yeah, cache, pid files,... dont store that, too!
/db/schema.rb # if more branches and more developers are on this project - conflicts are not fun
/public/system # default public shared stuff folder
