Description
The .idea
directory, which contains JetBrains IDE configuration files, is currently tracked in our repository. Since these configurations are specific to individual development environments and do not provide value to all users of the dotfiles, it is proposed to remove this directory from the repository.
Rationale
- Environment Specific:
.idea
configurations are specific to individuals using JetBrains IDEs and may not be relevant or useful to all contributors. - Privacy Concerns: The directory can contain user-specific settings that should not be publicly shared.
- Clutter Reduction: Removing it helps in decluttering the repository and focusing on universally applicable configurations.
Tasks
- Delete the
.idea
directory from the repository. - Add
.idea
to the.gitignore
file to prevent future tracking. - Commit these changes with a clear message.
- Push the changes and verify that the directory no longer appears in the repository.
Acceptance Criteria
- The
.idea
directory is completely removed from the repository. - The
.gitignore
file is updated to include the.idea
directory. - The repository remains functional without the
.idea
directory.
Additional Notes
- This change does not affect the functionality of any scripts or configurations directly related to the primary purpose of the dotfiles.
