    Can I add app_data/temp to my gitignore file?

    Hello, I am working on an Umbraco Site. Currently we have one other developer but may add one more soon. We are using Git as our version control software. Right now when I do a commit, there is always some missing files. For example /AppData/TEMP/ExamineIndexes/Extend/Index/d.tvd I don't know what these files are. It keeps causing conflicts when doing pushes/pulls. I am pretty new to Umbraco and Git, but I have lots of experience with .NET and SVN. Can I add this folder to my .gitignore file? I am using USync if that matters.

    Hi Charlie

    Simple answer - yes it is safe to add AppData/Temp to ignore list.

    You can also ignore "AppData/cache" and "AppData/Logs" too.

    Cheers

    Yes, we normally exclude the app_data/temp directory as well as a few other things.

    I found https://github.com/github/gitignore/blob/master/Umbraco.gitignore which looks like a pretty good list of gir ignored.

    I haven’t used usync in a while, but I think it puts its stuff in uSync/data so you should be fine there.

    Hi,

    Just to add the uSync answer is also yes you can ignore the stuff in App_Data/Temp - this is just the local history of sync data (viewed in the History tab) it doesn't affect how uSync functions - the actual data for syncing in in uSync/Data by default.
