I was wondering should I exclude .idea
directory from git, as Android Studio/IntelliJ seems to create many new files over time which is not excluded by the above .gitignore samples. I assume the .idea
directory could be regenerated by Android Studio/IntelliJ if not found. Looking into a android sample repo by Google, seems like .idea
directory is not stored and some .gitignore
exclude entire /.idea
while some do it selectively.
NOTE: You might want to exclude google-services.json
as well.
