If using Visual Studio 2017 - ignore files

It appears that VS 2017 has changed the file structure for the database files. So instead of just adding “.VC.db” to the gitignore file, you may want to add the following:

*.VC.db
*.VC.db-shm
*.VC.db-wal
*.VC.opendb

Github maintains a great repo of common ignore files. You can browse them here:

Here is the one for Unreal:
https://github.com/github/gitignore/blob/master/UnrealEngine.gitignore (NOTE: you should to rename to just .gitignore)

Picking one of the pre-configured ignore files is IMO the best way to start any repo.

Thanks. I stumbled onto this in another post and am now using this.
