.gitignore file missing from some of our solutions

Hi,

We use GitHub as a company for repository storage and version control on all out protocols and automation scripts, with all of the being converted to or created new as solutions.

Looking at one or two older ones the .gitignore file is missing, so files from the obj folder and others are being pushed to GitHub.

Should DIS be auto creating and or updating the files to ignore in this file?

Do we just need to copy one from an existing solution to get it setup correctly?

Something that worked for me to clear the git indexing and only add back in what should be included on GitHub, after adding in the .gitignore file was

git rm -r --cached . && git add . && git commit -am "Remove ignored files" && git push

Which clears the entire cache, adds everything back into the cache that's not excluded by the .gitignore, creates a commit and pushes the changes.
