Ignore the Junk

Write a .gitignore so build artifacts and logs stay out of history.

A beginner Git challenge worth 3 points. Solve it hands-on in a real Git environment in your browser - no local setup, no fake shells.

The Challenge

Scenario: The Node project in /tmp/app has index.js, a node_modules/ folder, and a debug.log.

Only your source belongs in Git.

Tasks:

• Create a .gitignore that ignores node_modules/ and *.log
• Commit index.js and .gitignore
• node_modules/ and debug.log must not be tracked

Commands to learn: .gitignore, git add, git status

Run check when done.
