What are the tools to greatly improve the operational efficiency of Git and GitHub? I believe many inexperienced people are at a loss about this. Therefore, this paper summarizes the causes and solutions of the problem. Through this article, I hope you can solve this problem.

Quick selection of gitignore

When we usually use Git for version management, in order to avoid the large size of online hosting projects, we generally do not include some minor files (such as log, cache, installation package, etc.) into version management.

At this point, we will reduce the size of the online code repository by creating a .gitignore configuration file and writing specific rules to specify that Git ignores tracking a directory or file and does not include it in version management.

Due to the different types of projects, the file directories to ignore are naturally different.

To this end, GitHub officially opened up a project that wrote specific .gitignore rules for developers and made them into templates. Developers just need to choose their own project category, copy and paste the contents of the file into their own project and use it.

Above, you can find .gitignore templates for all current mainstream languages.

What if you think the official project is not very convenient to use?

It doesn't matter. You can still use gitignore.io.

This is a rapid file generation tool developed by joeblau, an engineer at Uber. Developers only need to search the website for the operating system, IDE, and programming language that are currently in use, and it will automatically generate a specific .gitignore configuration file.

If you don't want to search on the site, you can also install his command-line tool.

After the installation is complete, you can use the gi command to quickly generate .gitignore configuration files, which is super convenient!

Quickly generate README documents

If you think writing README documents is a particularly time-consuming task, then the following project you should like.

Recently, a little brother from France opened up readme-md-generator on GitHub because he was tormented by repeatedly writing README documents.

You can tell from the name of the project that it is an README document generator. Its main function is to grab the package.json and git configuration information of the project through the command line and automatically complete the writing operation of the README document.

After reading the above, do you have any ways to greatly improve the operational efficiency of Git and GitHub? If you want to learn more skills or want to know more about it, you are welcome to follow the industry information channel, thank you for reading!
