AxoCover is a Code Coverage Tool. It creates a **.axoCover** folder where are created:
- settings in settings.json
- sub-folders into **run** folder which contain code coverage results.
All content into **.axoCover** folder must be ignored except the **settings.json** file.
- It is recommended to include the packages.config file when using Cake
- This ensures that the Cake version that is being used is *pinned* and updated only when the user decides
.jfm files have started blocking checking for .sqlproj projects in Visual Studio. .jfm files are a new file-type created by the Microsoft ESENT database engine - this is a recent improvement only in Windows 10 Anniversary update. As the SSDT .sqlproj type in Visual Studio uses this engine for .dbmdl metadata files, and this file is locked by the user, this currently blocks users from checking into Git repositories.
This fix helps mitigate this by avoiding checkin of this file type.
I've just upgraded to ASP.NET Core RC2, and I've found that Visual
Studio is producing a file called project.fragment.lock.json. When I
delete the file it is recreated during build. Given project.lock.json is
already ignored this looks like another file to ignore.
Commit a25589c921 introduced an ignore line for ApplicationInsights.config. This change breaks builds on certain systems, namely VSTS.
The current ASP.NET 4 template adds ApplicationInsights.config to the project's .csproj file. When VSTS attempts to build the project, it will fail if it cannot find ApplicationInsights.config.
ApplicationInsights.config is a required application file and should not be ignored.
The authoring of NuGet packages quite often include `build` folders, and when this is .gitignore'd it's very often the source of bugs in files that don't get checked in.
I've never seen a Visual Studio project that builds to a `build` folder (`bin` is the default name). As this is a Visual Studio template file, and we have real projects that include `build` folders that include source code, I recommend we remove suppression of this folder.
