  • There is a site called gitignore.io, where you can download a pretty good .gitignore template file: https://www.gitignore.io/api/unity

  • This file keeps the list of packages and versions loaded, you should keep it with your project

  • @C1sc0 Thanks for the link. I was aware of that, thank you. However, it does not provide reasoning for why certain files are / aren't tracked so that is part of the reason why I posted my question.

  • @BugFinder Thanks for the comment. I am aware that the manifest file keeps track of which packages are used. If you look at the .gitignore extract you will see I am ignoring everything in Packages except the manifest.json file. My question is whether it is safe to do that or if there are other configuration files that could be generated that need tracking. Very much like manifest.json.
