Hide (or make read only) files that shouldn't be touched?

[kiki-lee]

Is there a way to hide dependent files that need to remain untouched?
(I'm thinking like images.g.ts or similar)

Is it possible to unhide files if someone really wants to edit them or look at them? Maybe they should just become read only?

We should make them readonly. These files are still required to check-in to github repo if need be.

if we don't want to hide this and just want to lock instead, then I suppose it's now a dupe of #105
